Linux/GTK build of amaya-sources-9.54.tgz gets me version 8.54?

This must surely be a FAQ, but I can't find any explanation on the Amaya
project web pages. I download amaya-sources-9.54.tgz and built Amaya
9.54 which you announced on the 13th February 2007, from source, on
Slackware Linux 11.0:

$ tar xvfz amaya-sources-9.54.tgz
$ cd Amaya9.54/Amaya/gtk
$ ../configure --prefix=/usr/local/pkg/amaya-9.54 --with-gtk
....
$ make all
....
$ make install
....
$ ls /usr/local/pkg/amaya-9.54
Amaya-8.54  bin  man
$ ls -l /usr/local/pkg/amaya-9.54/bin
total 1
-rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 88 2007-02-16 11:58 amaya-gtk
$ chmod a+x /usr/local/pkg/amaya-9.54/bin/amaya-gtk
$ amaya-gtk

and when it starts up, the window header line says

"Not found, Amaya 8.54"

and the edit pane contains:

"Not found

 Cannot load /u5/john/tmp/%u"

Why has Amaya installed with the version number 8.54 rather than 9.54?
Also, surely Amaya should permit being started without a file name,
which could be set with a subsequent "Save as"?

I can't see any error messages in the configure or build log (which I
can send if required).
