It looks like a bug in windres. Here's a fix that works for both windres
and MS RC. The bug seems to be the icon controls within dialogs don't
like being defined in terms of "id", but rather expect a "name" instead.

    about_icon ICON DISCARDABLE "icon5.ico"

    ABOUT_WINDOW DIALOG DISCARDABLE 32, 32, 180, 100
    STYLE DS_MODALFRAME | WS_POPUP | WS_CAPTION
    FONT 8, "MS Sans Serif"
    BEGIN
      DEFPUSHBUTTON  "Ok", IDOK, 66, 80, 50, 14
      ICON           "about_icon", IDC_STATIC, 7, 7, 32, 32, SS_ICON
      CTEXT          "text one", IDC_STATIC, 40, 12, 100, 8
      CTEXT          "text two", IDC_STATIC, 7, 52, 166, 8
    END

I'll fix this for the next release. Thanks for the bug report with a 
easy to work with testcase!

Regards,
Mumit
