--- Comment #1 from Jon TURNEY <jon.turney at dronecode dot org.uk> ---
I don't understand why only certain sizes of resource section seem to trigger 
this problem, but a couple of observations:

I guess that the fact that the merged resource section can be smaller than the
sum of the sizes, and thus can move under a page-size boundary has something to
do with this bug.

The size of the resources in the DataDirectory is not updated by
rsrc_process_section()

Since rsrc_process_section() takes place after
bfd_coff_compute_section_file_positions(), allowing the .rsrc section to shrink
seems problematic (I'm not sure how this interacts with the "page align the
.rsrc section" patch in #16807)
