I believe the <add-resource> is used _only_ to introduce the new
resource; you can't simultaneously declare it also.

I.e. you need to do this:

<add-resource type="string" name="foo"></add-resource>
<string name="foo">Hello</string>

>From what I can see, aapt throws away everything but the name and type
attributes in the <add-resource> tag.
This makes sense because otherwise the <add-resource> tag would need
to be able to describe every other possible resource.
