When giving a define like that you should use the Append() function of
the environment. And leave out the -D part, so:

env = BlenderEnvironment(ENV = os.environ)
env.Append(RCFLAGS="Test=\"test it\"")
print env['RCFLAGS']
Exit()

Gives

Test="test it"

This should give correct result when it gets used in the call that
generates the windres command.
