Install fails on Windows 7

Not super important, but I get the following error on my Windows machine:

> devtools::install_github("sakrejda/stannis")

Works fine on Linux.

Hey, thanks for filing the issue, I somehow didn't see it till now. That's a really limited error message. If you can re-run the install with out_dir specified (devtools should dump more detailed output there) I'll check it out. I don't have a Windows machine on hand so it's hard for me to check myself.

Hi, I've only just come back to this. New machine, new error!

The contents of stannis.out:

FWIW, rstan and cmdstan both work/compile fine.
