No, the output is what I would expect (the line above is an abuse of the
ports system to provoke the error messages), and shows that the version
number is complete. So either the output is garbled some other way, or
you are fighting with an hardware error here.

Tell us when this is reproducible. OTOH when you experience random
errors I would suspect the hardware.
