Please read the R Installation and Administration manual. You are 
supposed to check from the OS shell, not from within R. Additionally, 
you have to do it on the package sources and you will need the relevant 
tools and compiler.

Anyway, the checks have already been performed for you on recent 
versions of R and systemfit. See:
