This was kind of hard to follow... TL;DR: using Windows-style paths with
Cygwin programs yields inconsistent results.  LLVM/Clang work better than
Binutils/GCC.

Specific failing case for llvm-windres:
$ mkdir src
$ touch src/resource.h
$ echo '#include "resource.h"' > src/test.rc
$ llvm-windres -v -o src/test.o src/test.rc
 /usr/bin/clang-21 --driver-mode=gcc -target x86_64-pc-windows-cygnus -E -xc -DRC_INVOKED src/test.rc -o /tmp/preproc-c14940.rc
$ llvm-windres -v -o src/test.o src\\test.rc
 /usr/bin/clang-21 --driver-mode=gcc -target x86_64-pc-windows-cygnus -E -xc -DRC_INVOKED "src\\test.rc" -o /tmp/preproc-9202d9.rc
src\test.rc:1:10: fatal error: 'resource.h' file not found
    1 | #include "resource.h"
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
llvm-rc: Preprocessing failed.


In general, it's better to stick with Cygwin paths (forward slashes,
/cygdrive/c/ instead of C:\) for Cygwin programs.  If you want native
LLVM/Clang that is also available, ie
https://github.com/mstorsjo/llvm-mingw or https://www.msys2.org CLANG64
environment
