I would like to know if you still plan this. I mean do you plan to use wrc instead of windres?
Hmm, as of now we use the "winebuild" tool to convert the .res files into the C structure bytecode, so we have the .res -> .o in a fashion.
I have been away for a while, but after a little investigation I found this in this day CVS status wine/Make.rules.in :
.res.res.o: $(WINDRES) -i $< -o
so I guess that wine still use windres :( ... So I think I will have to work on binutils, or maybe there is something I don't understand... (I hope so ;) )
