Another approach is to teach gprbuild about the language at a deeper
level; see 

http://www.adacore.com/wp-content/files/auto_update/gprbuild-docs/html/gprbuild_ug.html#The-GPRconfig-knowledge-base

Once gpr knows about the RC language, you can just put 

for Languages use ("Ada", "RC");

in your main *.gpr file.
