Ok -- I just put a pretty rough "cowboy" patch in which

 - alters src/Makevars to not require the extra shared library
 
 - moves the dozen of so lines of actual C code from src/rcon/
   into a file in src/ to have in the same C library

See 
https://salsa.debian.org/edd/r-cran-readr/commit/1d010ed32525fb2bebaf84e7bff7aae70927438f

That builds and loads. Let's see what the autopkgtests say; it will give us
some breathing time while upstream can figure out if this really needs to be
a shared library.  Static may work too and is simpler, including the code as
I did even more so.  There may be other goals I am unaware of.
