Exactly, and a very precise description of the contents of the xaaes
folder on my Firebee right now.

It's rather pointless. I'd say leave the functionality in (I can see it
can be useful if a developer needs two versions of XaAES installed) but
only keep xaaes.rsc in the CVS. XaAES will load it, it will check that
it's the correct version and the user don't end up with multiple
resource-files when (s)he upgrades to the next minor version.
