Problem with windres under windows '95

[Jon & Sue Trauntvein]

The message that I am getting is as follows:

    windres viconed.rc /mnt/proj/v/obj/gnuwin32/viconrc.o

    windres: warning: preprocessor failed
    windres: no resources

For the following file:

-- begin resource file --
/***************************************************************************
*

V.RC
  Minimal .RC for V applications

****************************************************************************
*/

vAppIcon ICON viconed.ico
vWindowIcon ICON vwindow.ico

-- end file --
