I think it would work, the .res is going to be in the build tree
too. You could also create a symlink if you are concerned about
that. But maybe a better approach would be to simply output the .res
into a .o and have winebuild check the file header to recognize when
an object file is a .res in disguise; this way you don't need an
intermediate .res.

Not sure what you mean here; the .res is already compiled anyway.
