a VERSIONINFO resource. The versioning scheme is described in
windows/version.rc2.
Some .rc files are now #included in others. In order to keep MSVC
project files working, these have been renamed to .rc2; there may exist
a better solution.
(This checkin also includes the documentation tweak missing from r6367.)
Testing performed:
- MinGW (cross-compiler): works
- VC nmake: works (tested with VC6)
- VC project files: builds with VERSIONINFO resource (no VER variable though)
- Borland: an old version of this patch was tested with it and more or
less worked, except that some of the VERSIONINFO strings were apparently
not terminated properly. Not attempted to work around this.
- LCC: not tested. Some fixes are in there from the last time we tried
this, but then the build ultimately failed and I haven't tried this
since that was fixed.
- Dev-C++: untested. (Haven't done anything special.)
- Unix Gtk/autoconf Makefiles work as before.

was fixed in CVS in 2000 (I think); and we now depend on MinGW much more
recent than that for various other reasons. I've tested with my current
MinGW (around 2.0.0 vintage) and the original symptoms (dodgy characters in
edit boxes) don't appear to show up.
