I think a more moderate measure might be to clarify the error message
"aborting because of version mismatch (Use the -i option to proceed
anyway.)\n"
I'm not sure how many of the mentioned complaints we are getting, but the
error message might make people think that it's complaining because the
versions are not equal rather than that the versions are known not
compatible.
