Note that this limit is slightly lower in real life: 2727 is the most
resources you can get into a resource file with only one resource type. I
think I remember concluding that you drop--on average--about 1.5 resources
in capacity per additional type (obviously, the drop is in integral numbers
of resources...two, then one, then two, etc).

--John (also amused by the "don't care" bytes in the first 256 bytes of a
resource file, which make copying and comparing more "fun" than need be).
