For releases  PETSC_VERSION_RELEASE  is defined to be 1 while for master PETSC_VERSION_RELEASE  is defined to be 0. Thus if you want to switch between master and release you need to also include a check on the PETSC_VERSION_RELEASE value.

PETSC_VERSION_LT and related comparison macros handle non-RELEASE as
+Inf for the purpose of comparison.  I recommend using those macros.
