 If I take out the ", Version" part, it just tells me it can't find the file
 "Nonsense".

+Likely the bug is in get_info_from_assembly_name, which doesn't
+advance tmp if the part fails to match the known prefixes (Version=,
+Culture=, PublicKeyToken=).  I'm not sure if we should report a format
+error, just skip the unknown part, or simply return FALSE and let
+people get a good old file-not-found error.  The latter two options
+are pretty easy, and I'll probably pick the last for my tree, if
+nobody says otherwise.
