I don't know what you mean by "wrong" but the version output looked ok
on Windows.  I assume that if windres could handle it, that it
must be "right" for my version of windres.

Well, if it's hanging, that's not a symptom of the signal code doing
fine.  If you can track down where it is hanging that will help me
figure out why.  I've found that using gdb to attach to a running
process is invaluable for this.  You might have to wander through
cygwin's various threads to find out who's hanging, though.

Actually, I eliminated the > about ten seconds after sending out
the patch.  I still missed the 'rm -f $@', though.  Thanks.
