Yeah, I noticed that once and meant to comment on it, but wasn't near a
mailer. Sorry.

Here's the scheme we've been using all along for the Win32 builds -- namely,
put the resources into the same directory as the matching code:
abi/src/af/xap/win
------------------
Container for all Windows resources for XAP stuff:
xap_Win32Resources.rc2
Specific XAP dialogs:
xap_Win32Res_DlgInsertSymbol.rc2
xap_Win32Res_DlgWindowMore.rc2
xap_Win32Res_DlgZoom.rc2
abi/src/wp/ap/win
-----------------
Ditto for app-specific stuff:
ap_Win32Resources.rc2
ap_Win32Res_Dlg*.rc2
ap_Win32Res_Icons.rc2
abi/src/wp/ap/win/main
----------------------
Where it all comes together:
Win32Main.rc
If you'd like, I can also dig out the makefile magic used to locate all of
the above.
