I use this:

  # Runs the Windows resource compiler on $src, producing $dst (which
  # should be a .obj file).
  sub cons::ResourceFile {
    my($env) = shift;
    my($dst) = shift;
    my($src) = shift;

    $resname = "\\temp\\res-tmp.res";
    Command $env $dst, $src,
      qq(%RC %RCFLAGS /fo $resname %<
        %CVTRES %CVTRESFLAGS $resname /out:%>
         rm $resname
          );
  }

Which works OK for me.  You could do it as two separate commands, .rc
-> .res then .res -> .obj, but I don't care about the .res files (does
anyone?) so I don't keep them.
