This patch ensures that MSVC builds under msys will use windres when
available, thereby resulting in the appropriate version and copyright
information to be included in the dlls, as is already the case in the mingw
builds.

Wouldn't it make more sense to add support for rc.exe instead?

Yes, that's an excellent point, and I agree that would be better.
Additionally, I've just found the patch breaks the build on some libraries
(at least postproc), my apologies for missing that on submission.

Kind regards,
