[wix-users] DLL with invalid version sets File/@Version to 0.0.0.0

Hi

I noticed that when a managed DLL contains an invalid AssemblyFileVersion
attribute, the Version column in the File table reverts this to 0.0.0.0.
For example, I had a file that was set to something like "2.2.2.70424.0" 5
parts instead of 4 and the 4th part is outside the uint16 range.

Is this expected, or should the linker or maybe even an ICE call out the
0.0.0.0 version as a warning?

Thanks,
Jacques
