[R] Time conversion from Win32 64bit FILETIME?

Windows-32 has a time structure called FILETIME, a 64-bit value 
representing the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since January 1, 
1601 (UTC).   That is not a typo, the year is 1601. 

Does anyone have a clue(or algorhithm)for how this is converted to 
something a little more POSIX-like ?

Thank you,

Derek
