Apparently the problem is actually only visible on upgrade, not on clean installs. Looks like it's just how the HTML is displayed. According to the method add_error_msg, witch displays the error, the HTML code inside errors can be escaped or not with the second parameter set it to FALSE or TRUE. The error messages had HTML and the method invocation was set to escape HTML (The default option), giving as result HTML escaped, where it should not be escaped, it should be displayed as HTML.
