I had the same problem some weeks ago and found the sourcecode at

http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/

I downloaded the most recent version bootstrap_1.0-12.tar.gz and 
compiled and installed it on R 2.0.0/Windows. There are some warnings 
during compilation (Codoc mismatches) and at runtime (multi-argument 
returns are deprecated...) and it *still* works.
