Yes, the standalone builder was altered in several ways, one of which 
was to support a more standard API for Windows resources. From the 
engine change log:

***
The method by which standalone building is done has changed in this 
release. Standalones are now built in such a way that they behave much 
better as executable files on all three platforms. In particular, 
Revolution standalone executables can now:
   - be digitally signed using the various OS tools on Windows and Mac OS X
   - have arbitrarily sized document and application ICO files used on 
Windows
   - have their resources edited on Windows
   - be used with various third-party executable processing tools (such 
as compressors, trial run makers, network key wrappers etc.)
***

If you're having a problem, you should probably submit a bug report. 
Although, if you didn't use a Windows icon editor to create your Windows 
app icons, I'd try that first.
