The problem was only appearing for one target, I've since moved some resources around on a form and both targets now have the problem. Suggests it's something evil.

I get about six hundred instances. Confirming that it's probably some form of corruption or invalid property. This didn't pick up bitmaps (of which we've got several hundred) but that's still not going to bring the total up to 2800.
