Summary: KYRA (and others?): give full path when wrong datafile ver.

Initial Comment:
Now and then people are not able to start engines which require datafiles because the datafiles are outdated (I've only seen this with KYRA.DAT since this file changes quite often still). People will try to download an updated version, but since often an older version still exists somewhere on the system the game still won't start.

For the sake of usability it would probably be a good idea to include the path to the incorrect KYRA.DAT in the error message.
