The IT w/ #1555 failed due this output (in debug, as IT uses Maven with -X):
```
[WARNING] The POM for org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:jar:3.8.1 is invalid,
transitive dependencies (if any) will not be available: 3 problems were
encountered while building the effective model for
org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.8.1
[ERROR] Failed to determine activation for profile java9+ @
[ERROR] Failed to determine activation for profile java11+ @
[ERROR] Failed to determine activation for profile jdk7-plugin-fix-version @
org.apache.commons:commons-parent:47
```
And these ERRORS were actually due NumberFormatEx caused by the fact that IT
MNG-3746 uses on purpose `-Djava.version=cli` to test is profile activation
used properties overridden or not.
> If JDK profile activator gets "invalid" JDK version for whatever reason, it
> chokes but does not tell why

>
> The JDK profile activator uses property {{java.version}} to determine is
> profile active or not, but if you look at MNG-3746 you can see that Maven
> _allows overriding that property_ by user, but also, today some "weird
> formatted" version may pop up in the wild.
> The JDK profile activator is not prepared for these cases, and will just
> throw (NumberFormatEx), without telling why it did belly up.
> Improve the message why it throw.
