Thanks a lot.

It seems the default-manifest.o file is broken in the first place:

  $ windres /usr/lib/default-manifest.o -o d.rc
  windres: accelerator: not enough binary data

There's a wrong value in the file.  It should have been

  1 24 MOVEABLE PURE DISCARDABLE

rather than

  1 9 MOVEABLE PURE DISCARDABLE

but fixing this doesn't help either.  There is apparently something
else wrong.  I'll discuss this with my collegue.


Thanks,
Corinna
