You are trying to build with 2.7.1. If you are absolutely sure that the

perhaps the message is too long and too informative? maybe something like a bikini (short and to the point) would be better?

eg : Makefile:2704: *** WRONG COMPILER VERSION (2.7.1)! You MUST use 2.6.0 to compile with. Other compiler versions are not supported! (You might try "OVERRIDEVERSIONCHECK=1" but NO SUPPORT is given for this if it fails!)

I'd suggest that anything like that would be counterproductive, since it implies that prompt support will be given for things that are even dumber- like trying to compile FPC using Delphi :-)
