windres bug + fix

["Dmitry Timoshkov" <dmitry at baikal dot ru>]

Hello.

This simple resource file causes windres to fail:

rc -r windres_bug.rc
windres -I res -O coff -o windres_bug.res.o -i windres_bug.res

-- cut here: windres_bug.rc --
1 RCDATA
BEGIN
"text1"
END

2 RCDATA
BEGIN
"text2"
END
-- cut here --

The patch below fixes it. I have tested the patch with many different
resource files and it seem to have no side effects.

 * resres.c (read_resource_entry): Align after reading data.

   r = bin_to_res (type, buff, reshdr.data_size, 0);
   r->res_info = resinfo;

P.S.
Why Cygwin version of binutils is so different from the official release
of binutils 2.11.2? Is it expected to have both branches merged?
