PatR 0efa1d60b7 fix compatability checking for development ...

It is astounding that after all this time no one noticed that
incrementing EDITLEVEL wasn't doing the job it's intended to do.
Diagnosed by entrez:  since VERSION_COMPATIBILITY was defined as
3.7.0-0 and up, increasing the fourth component wasn't resulting in
old 3.7.0-x files being rejected.

This increments EDITLEVEL yet again, because my testing after
commenting out VERSION_COMPATIBILITY still wasn't rejecting older
files.  Proably because the oldest I had available already had the
verison info with the preceding EDITLEVEL so weren't actually out
of date yet.

Once I had old files be rejected, I discovered that the rejection
message was invisible (for tty on OSX).  The message line showed
spaces, matching the length of the intended message, followed by
--More--.  This fixes that too.
