Can you also update NEWS and the table in the FAQ?

Is it possible to write the above test so that the number in the minor
version check is the highest supported? If I remember correctly, we
used to have something like this and people wouldn't notice that it
should be one higher than the actual number - i.e. when 4.1 is
supported the check wouldn't be updated because they already see a '4'
and a '1'.
