That is currently un-implemented for mingw.  Works with borland and
ms.   It would not be too hard to add, but last time I tried it did
not work.   It is treated like a language.  You could try this:
PROJECT(foo C CXX RC)

And see what happens.  For MS and Borland, the rc language is automatically
enabled.
