Mantis#2017. Thank you kindly, Tyre, for a patch that solves:

Check the client dialog box (from top menu) WORLD / REGION ESTATE 
/ REGION tab. The client dialog box seems to have a hard limit of 
about 32 characters per line available for displaying the region 
version number. Our regions are sending a string which is greater 
than the limit, causing the client to wrap the text and look ugly.
