I'm going through the source code right now, and it turns out that there are about a million possible reasons why this error message might be generated, none of which are reported in any way at the point where these errors are generated.

What this message really means is "Some error occurred, somewhere in the code, for some reason. Maybe the file couldn't be opened, or maybe it wasn't in the right format, or maybe it was something else entirely. Who knows?"

I'll just sprinkle some fprintf's into ObjectFile::FindPlugin, and then maybe I'll actually know something.

Worst. Error-hiding. Ever.
