1) Manually:

wget http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Rcpp_0.10.4.tar.gz
wget -O 0.10.4-cygwin.patch 
'http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/R-Rcpp;a=blob_plain;f=0.10.4-cygwin.patch;hb=HEAD'
tar axf Rcpp_0.10.4.tar.gz
pushd Rcpp
patch -p2 < ../0.10.4-cygwin.patch
popd
R CMD INSTALL ./Rcpp
mv /usr/lib/R/site-library/Rcpp/lib/libRcpp.dll /usr/bin/
ln -s /usr/bin/libRcpp.dll /usr/lib/R/site-library/Rcpp/lib/libRcpp.dll.a

2) Install cygport and git (and their prereqs), then:

git clone git://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/cygwin-ports/R-Rcpp
cd R-Rcpp
cygport R-Rcpp.cygport fetch prep build install package
tar axf R-Rcpp-0.10.4-1/dist/R-Rcpp/R-Rcpp-0.10.4-1.tar.bz2 -C /
git clean -dfq
