I would argue that compatibility with MS' rc is more important...
I don't see why this is so important. The resource compiler is included in the tree, and should be pretty trivial to make work on any platform that you want to build Wine on. And if it doesn't work right it needs to be fixed; I don't see why we need to introduce extra complexity to use another compiler.
Besides, if someone really wants to use the MS compiler, it would be pretty trivial to enhance bin2res to generate MS-compatible files from the Wine sources. There's no need to ship binary files for that.
