The makefile is in a directory at the top level of the distribution;
i.e., ../configure produces the Makefile line

srcdir = ..

and the make target is:

wxstedit_wxstedit_rc.o: $(srcdir)/./samples/stedit/wxstedit.rc

So, we are compiling

.././samples/stedit/wxstedit.rc

Now, pencil.ico is in

.././art/pencil.ico

which is

../art/pencil.ico
