I receive this message in the console window starting Maniac Mansion:

"Looking for maniac
Trying to start game 'Maniac Mansion'
WARNING: Engine_SCUMM_create: No unique game candidate found, using first
one!  Unknown MD5 (e537d20c9e238b4e52fbb47dd12d2cd4)! If this is an official
version of the game (and not e.g. a fan made translation), please report the
details (language, platform, etc.) of this game to the ScummVM team
Enhanced V2 game detected"

The game an enhanced/V2 version of Maniac Mansion, in US English for
MS-DOS.  The MD5 of the main data file (00.LFL) is
e537d20c9e238b4e52fbb47dd12d2cd4.

I dug up the original floppy disk and verified that all the files are the
same as the ones on my hard disk.  The text on the disk label lists 1987,
1988 and 1989 as the copyright years.

The game plays correctly up until the room after Dr. Fred's lab, at which
points it goes to the debugger (I wanted to submit this variant of the game
before I submitted a detailed bug report on this).

If any more information is required I will be happy to provide it.
