	I'm trying to use gcc and windres to build a small native
	Windows application.  When compiling, I'm using -mno-cygwin;
	when linking, I'm using -mwindows.  To generate a .res file from
	a .rc file, I'm using:

		windres -O coff $< $@

	in my makefile.  Everything seems to work and the generated
	executable also shows its icon as specified in the .rc file, but
	there's no version information tab in Windows explorer.  My .rc
	file is below.

	Any ideas why this doesn't work and how to make it work?

	- Paul
