It seems that it's the new addition of ':n' which has pushed it over the limit of the 11 char field. Has this been thought through? I can see that the ':n' qualifier is necessary to disambiguate alternate origins. Without the redundant formatting spaces 9 chars would be sufficient even for 'P 42/n n m :2' which is indeed the longest one at 13 chars (also 'I 41/a m d :2').
