>> Funnily, this problem disappears when I use RTools31.exe. And, I am not the only one facing this issue. A lot of people in my group (in which we all are learning R) are facing the same problem. I am really puzzled as to why RTools32.exe isn't compatible with R 3.1.2 !!

Yes, that was my fault - I hadn't updated devtool's list of Rtools
versions to tell it about 3.2.

I've fixed it in the dev version which can be installed by following
the instructions at
https://github.com/hadley/devtools#updating-to-the-latest-version-of-devtools
 (I'd appreciate it if someone could try this out and let me know if
it doesn't work)
