    OTHER: fix build failure on windres aware binutils (linux host, native build)
    
    Trying to use windres under linux (native build) is worthless:
    
    [ 26/269] winrc: pixmaps/xmms2.rc -> _build_/default/pixmaps/xmms2.rc.o
    /usr/bin/windres: can't get BFD_RELOC_RVA relocation type: No error
    Waf: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/paludis/media-sound-xmms2-9999-r3/work/xmms2-devel/_build_'
    Build failed
     -> task failed (err #1):
            {task: winrc xmms2.rc -> xmms2.rc.o}
