RELEASE constant has been removed. You can get the same value using MAJOR_VERSION and MINOR_VERSION constants. Magic __get() method for accessing constants as properties also removed. Use constants directly. Exact replacement for your code is:
if (version_compare($this->joomla_version::MAJOR_VERSION . '.' . $this->joomla_version::MINOR_VERSION, '3.4', '<'))

Closing as expected behavior. Check previous comments for the reasons.
But thanks for reporting it, better one false report than one report missing for a real bug.

In your step 3 above, change code to:
if (version_compare($this->joomla_version->getShortVersion(), '3.4', '<'))
It should work.
