It contains what will be the next feature release (9.4, at the moment).
Notice that your reported version above contains a git revision: 706970.
If you look that up in the repo, you'll find that it's a few commits
back from the current tip of the maint branch. The maint branch is the
source for the ELPA builds and is where bug fix releases are cut from.

Bug fixes that apply to maint should ideally be based off of maint, and
master is usually appropriate for everything else.
