I have received this error when there was a problem storing the resource
file. The documentation says that it could be a write error or disk full.
I have never found that to be the case. The problem tends to be that I have
another copy of one of my .rscs files on my disk in the parent folder of the
offending .rsrc and it is read only. The way I normally debug this is by
looking at the warnings in the link output. I follow the list of
successfull dup resource warnings until I get to the last one. Then I
compare that with my segment list and see what resource should have come
next. It is usually that resource that is causing the problem.
