I'm not really sure, but I think RC_INVOKED is automatically #define'd by
the compiler when it's calling from a resource file, to block-out parts of
the code inapplicable to it (like function prototypes, etc.). Try
    #ifdef RC_INVOKED
    #error some message
    #endif
in a header, and include it *only* in a resource file and then only in a
code file. It should error only when included from the rc.
