Thanks, Kai, I'll get time to look at it late tonight. A couple of grammar
points for your changelog entries: (I do not mean to offend, I appreciate
English is not your first language!)

Should probably list which structures.

"support" is present tense, so use "Rewrite" to match, instead of "rewrote"
(past tense).

"RC format dumps are now recompilable" or "Dumps in RC format are now
recompilable".

"Use bfd for res..."

"Include windint.h. Additionally, remove K&R syntax."
