   > And to do what? I don't see where is the error message adjusted... what do 
i miss?
   
   The new test case at 
https://github.com/apache/maven/blob/78da8ff662d9c9e0ba87aa2138114d8fd393855c/maven-model-builder/src/test/java/org/apache/maven/model/validation/DefaultModelValidatorTest.java#L120
 demonstrates how the message changes. Before this PR, the message in this case 
is `'modelVersion' of '4.0' is newer than the versions supported by this 
version of Maven: [4.0.0]. Building this project requires a newer version of 
Maven.` And with this PR, as this test case proves, the error message is 
`'modelVersion' must be one of [4.0.0] but is '4.0'.`.

> When a pom with modelVersion 4.0 is referenced, such as this one:
> {code:xml}
> <project>
>   <modelVersion>4.0</modelVersion>
>   <groupId>foo</groupId>
>   <artifactId>bar</artifactId>
>   <version>0.1</version>
> </project>
> {code}
> The error message is:
> {{'modelVersion' of '4.0' is newer than the versions supported by this 
> version of Maven: [4.0.0]. Building this project requires a newer version of 
> Maven.}}
>  
> That's misleading.
> A better error message would be:
> {{'modelVersion' must be one of [4.0.0] but is '4.0'.}}
