mmm maybe what is wrong is to set <current_initial_release> to 9, and
it should be 9.0?
I've seen that for the Squeeze cycle we were using 7.0 for
"current_initial_release", and when we released Jessie, we changed to
8 instead of 8.0:
https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/webwml/webwml/english/template/debian/release_info.wml?r1=1.75&r2=1.76
But I don't know if that change was intentional, to avoid other
problems, or just a small mistake, that I inherited when applied the
changes for the Stretch release...
