FPCRes alignment issues

Summary

resources compiled with fpcres are giving errors

System Information

Windows 10 x86, Linux x86-64 FPC 3.2.2 both on windows and linux

Steps to reproduce

• run fpcres version.rc -of res
• compile and run test program

Example Project

program test;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
{$R version.rc}
uses FileInfo,SysUtils;
var v:TVersionInfo;
begin
  v := TVersionInfo.Create;
  v.Load(HInstance);
  writeln(Format('%d.%d.%d.%d',
    [v.FixedInfo.FileVersion[0],
     v.FixedInfo.FileVersion[1],
     v.FixedInfo.FileVersion[2],
     v.FixedInfo.FileVersion[3]
    ]));
  v.Free;
end.

version.rc:

        END
    END
    BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
    BEGIN
        VALUE "Translation", 0x413, 1252
    END
END

What is the current bug behavior?

when running the test program it crashes with a

An unhandled exception occurred at $004269B8:
EDuplicateKeyException: Duplicate key 'gramnam'

What is the expected (correct) behavior?

the 8.26.0.0 version printed on screen

Possible fixes

stripping out the \0 from the rc make it seem to work on linux and windows, but in that case the version info in the windows-executable is garbled (when viewing the properties of the file in explorer)
