Indeed it should.  Thank you for pointing that out!
Fixed for next time.

        * Makefile.cfg (gnu_rel_host): Fix code to match the comment
        so that a version number with a two-digit component can still count
        as an alpha release.  Reported by Richard A Downing.
        (gnu_rel_host): Define in terms of $(RELEASE_TYPE) instead.
