Public bug reported:

When trying to load a C++ mixed assembly, I found that NUnit threw an
unhandled exception rather than reporting a reasonable error. It turns
out this also happens if you try to load any file that is either not a
valid PE file or not a .NET assembly.

We should give an intelligent error message instead.
