I'm 99.9% sure it's the former (.cvsignore is wrong).  ApacheMonitor.rc is
definitely needed.

And you were all but .1% correct :)  We will simply need to be explicit about
the .rc files that _will_ be ignored.  ApacheMonitor.rc has a number of very
specific resources for this gui app, while most .rc files in the Apache tree
are autogenerated for win32, with simply a versioning resource entity.
