just did a short test, and yes, 2.7.4 throws an error that the three  
32 bit icons are
missing in the icon file, but they are definitively there!

Did the test with MC, so it IS an engine issue.

The error text must be coming from the engine, since this error  
string is
definitively NOT in the script of the standalone building routine of  
MetaCard!

Oh my god scotland, big fun :-/

Could you please bugzilla thgis, Ken? Thanks.
I am a bit in a hurry.
