     You are trying to build with 2.7.1. If you are absolutely sure that the
current
     compiler is built from the exact same version/revision, you can try to
use
     OVERRIDEVERSIONCHECK=1 to override .  Stop.

edited the makefile and replaced the 2.6.0 with 2.7.1 trying to get around the

I really don't like making this comment, but looking at the bug report (and checking the current Makefile)

> You try to build with 2.6.1.

That could very easily be misread as "You should try to build with 2.6.1", correct idiomatic English would be "You are trying to build with 2.6.1.", or to rub their nose in it "You are trying to build with 2.6.1, which is not supported.".
