Agreed, but wrc is not a wine/winelib application and I do not want it
to become one. It has been written to be native *nix and "contamination"
with windows should be avoided. It only uses headers for convenience (I
still have a subtree that avoids all wine-headers and compiles
completely outside wine).

The penalty for using wine is not only user/gdi, but also registry
loading and the wineserver /-interface. If you really want to use wine,
then I suggest to use the native windows applications (rc.exe and
mc.exe), but the point was to be free of them.

Ok.
