Scons wants "rc", won't compile (win/MSVC)???

I've been trying to compile bf-blender and tuhopuu with MSVC and associated programs, and scons. Here's what happens:

SCons wrote:scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Building targets ...
rc /DWIN32 /D_CONSOLE /DWITH_QUICKTIME /D_LIB /DUSE_OPENAL /DGLEW_STATIC /DFTGL_
LIBRARY_STATIC /DGAMEBLENDER=1 /DUSE_SUMO_SOLID /DBM_TEXTUREPAINT=1 /DNO_AQSIS=1
/DNDEBUG /I\usr\include /fosource\icons\winblender.res source\icons\winblender.
rc
'rc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
scons: *** [source\icons\winblender.res] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.

Can I get some help resolving this?

rc.exe is the ressource compiler in MSVC and should be in the "common bin" folder of your MS devel stuff. Since this is the first thing the scons script does with the developers environment i guess it does not see anything of it. Did you do VCVARS32.bat ?

Yes, I ran the .bat. A search of my system found no rc.exe.

you can find the resource compiler in:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin
add that path to your vcvars32.bat

That dir doesn't exist

Is on your visual C++ directory.

Just do a search on that directory for rc.exe

Blender.org
