Here's the relevant IRC discussion between me and Mans on the subject:

00:36 <@DonDiego> mru: did you see that windows rc thing?
00:37 <@mru> I saw it, didn't look at it
00:37 <@mru> in detail
00:37 <@mru> this is the wrong solution
00:37 <@mru> what we should do is
00:37 <@mru> 1. fix version.h creation to work when building in subdirs
00:38 <@DonDiego> yes
00:38 <@mru> 2. add a %.o: %.rc rule
00:38 <@mru> 3. add a %.rc: whatever rule
00:38 <@mru> perhaps with a shell script helper
00:39 <@DonDiego> we can start with 1.
00:39 <@DonDiego> IIUC this is a real bug anyway
00:39 <@mru> yes, that's why I gave it that number

That does indeed sound like a plan.
