Instead, load the extractor into a TMemoryStream, attach streams of the
resources to the end of it, then add pointers to the end of that to the
start location of each resource. Have the main extractor read itself
into a filestream, get the pointers for each individual resource, and
extract them back out.
Pretty simple actually, and appending to the end of the main file
doesn't break the executable.
