windres.exe error?

I'm getting what seems to be an out of memory error
when running an .rc through windres, but I'm suspicious
because of the huge allocation:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
windres.exe -i minimal.rc -o minimal_resources.o --include-dir \
/usr/local/wx/include --define __WIN32__ --define __WIN95__ --define \
__GNUWIN32__

[main] c:\cygnus\CYGWIN~1\H-I586~1\bin\windres.exe 1777 (0)
commit_and_inc: VirtualAlloc failed

windres.exe: Can not allocate 369098853 bytes after allocating 201318400
bytes
make: *** [minimal_resources.o] Error 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------

An allocation of 370 Mb to compile an .rc file seems a bit
excessive, doesn't it? I'll be glad to send the .rc file
to whomever, I just didn't want to spam the list.

This is under B20.1 with egcs 1.1.1. Did I miss an update
to windres.exe somewhere?

thanks!
frank
