I have a macro that calls this for me.

AC_DEFUN([LX_PROG_RC],
 [AS_IF([test x$ac_cv_prog_ac_ct_RC = x], [LT_LANG([Windows 
Resource])], [])
  AM_CONDITIONAL([HAVE_WINDRES], [test x$ac_cv_prog_ac_ct_RC != x])
 ])

Looks like that isn't working properly, because the AM_CONDITIONAL was 
setting HAVE_WINDRES else I wouldn't be compiling the rsrc.rc file at all.
