Will do. In fact, I just updated it in my sources.

We are currently creating approximately-weekly builds of beta, then rc, then
release tarballs of R leading up to the release of R 3.3.0 which is scheduled
for May 3. [1] As I just made a release this morning, this will affect the next
build in a few days.

[1] There are transition issues on Windows with an (overdue !!) upgrade of
the toolchain to g++-4.9.3 that upstream needs some extra time with. The
release was originally planned for next week.
