Boy is my face red!  Chris, of course, is right.  I find IDC_STATIC
defined in multiple MSVC include files including AFXRES.H and WINRES.H.
While it is defined in the project specific resource.h files as needed,
there must also be references to it at the system level that make it 
at least convenient to define it at the system level as well.

So it looks like is valid to define IDC_STATIC at the system level...
