I think this is better. Probably good enough.
My concern stems from the fact that 'release' doesn't seem to be defined for
_class files_. I see that the term 'release' exists, and maps to a versioned
directory, or you can compile classes _for_ a certain release, But, it seems
that 'the release of a class file' is a new concept here. (after all, `javac`
doesn't produce class files _with_ a certain release).
Maybe: `class file {fp.entryName()} compiled for release
{fp.classReleaseVersion()}, is illegal in version directory {fp.mrversion()}`
(This is perhaps somewhat terse, but `javac` sets the precedent for that. A
user could find out _why_ the version is illegal by referencing the jar file
spec).
