Actually I found one tiny problem.   If you ask which Windows version
you are using when running under Windows 8 it tells you that you are
using Windows 7 :

> R.version.string
[1] "R version 2.15.2 Patched (2013-01-13 r61650)"
> win.version() ## Should be Windows 8
[1] "Windows 7 x64 (build 9200)"
