See comment on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3758 and chat discussion. In the toolchain used to build R packages, codecvt isn't found. This was apparently made into a harder requirement with the filesystem work last month.
We'll need some kind of workaround. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15615136/is-codecvt-not-a-std-header suggests Boost.Locale.
