Yes. This is a side-effect of the version being done for the tarball by the
maketgz script so the actual release-string is never used in the git repo.

I bumped it for the next development period, yes. It is not a fix for the
problem at the time of the next release...

That wouldn't fix this problem. To fix this particular problem I would have to
change the header in git to say the correct version before I package the
release.

Is it really a problem to anyone though? The release is made with maketgz
using the files in the git repo with the appropriate tag. The output tarball
will have the correct version number in it.
