I found it too, but unfortunately it is not working.
1.) The RC-compiler grumbles about not able to find "config.h".
2.) Copying this file to '.' does not help either. This time because of 
undefined resource.
3.) /usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-windres --help does not give me a clue about the 
correct
        settings to be used.
