Simply because we're never going to have version 9.999.9 ? I
mean, even when we start development for lilypond 10, we're never
going to have 999 releases between lilypond 8 and 10. We could
use 9.999.9 as a convention for "not a real version number".
Yes, it's not as safe as adding letters to the version number, but
OTOH I'm pretty certain that we could use 9.999.9 without any
build-system-related problems. (hmm... actually, it's just
possible that it wouldn't be happy with the leading 2. But
something like 2.999.9 should be totally safe)
