Format of one item in DOS 4+ list of special program names:
Offset  Size    Description
 00h    BYTE    length of name (00h = end of list)
 01h  N BYTEs   name in format name.ext
 N    2 BYTEs   DOS version to return for program (major,minor)
                (see AH=30h,INT 2F/AX=122Fh)
---DOS 4 only---
 N+2    BYTE    number of times to return fake version number (FFh = always)
Note:   if the name of the executable for the program making the DOS "get
          version" call matches one of the names in this list, DOS returns the
          specified version rather than the true version number
