We could probably live with that.

Yes, I am interested. Thanks a lot for the offer. May be we could write 
a tool that automaticaly generates a resources bundle project for a 
given framework project. On windows and with your gnumake patch the 
framework would be built as a library. Only on windws one would 
additionally build the resources bundle. Some code would need to be 
added to load the bundle on windows. Does a loadable bundle work on 
windows or do we encounter the same problems there?

Thanks a lot!
