That's an error. You should only ever have one each of 'tAIB' #1000 and
'tAIB' #1001.

That resource type (and several others) exist only in Constructor resource
files on your desktop computer. The PalmRez post linker transforms such
Constructor-only resources into different Palm-only resources that end up in
the PRC. Some examples:
- In Constructor (3.5 SDK), each depth of a bitmap is stored as a separate
resource ('cicn' or 'PICT' or something) plus a 'tbmf' resource tying them
together. PalmRez combines them into a single 'tBMP' resource that contains
all the depths end-to-end.
- Same goes for icons, but with Constructor family type 'taif' and Palm
resource type 'tAIB'.
- When you design a form in Constructor each form object is stored as a
separate resource: buttons as 'tBTN', fields as 'tFLD', labels as 'tLBL',
etc. PalmRez combines all of them together to form a single large 'tFRM'
resource in the PRC.
