+Summary: Assemblies should have MS.NET compatible Win32 version resources
+
+I selected corlib but this bug affects our entire class library.
+
+At least profile 1.1 (some 2.0 assemblies maybe) uses no 
+AssemblyFileVersion attributes, but assemblies have Win32 version 
+resources different from their AssemblyVersion attributes.
+
+Win32 version resources can be used and possibly are used for the same 
+purposes as AssemblyInformationalVersion and AssemblyFileVersion 
+attributes so if we use MS.NET compatible AssemblyInformationalVersion 
+and AssemblyFileVersion attributes we should do the same for version 
+resources.
+
+Doing so currently requires custom Win32 resource files being specified 
+for compilers.
