IMO it's working as expected and as it should do.
It's aware of newer firmware so it tries to load that first, but then 'fall 
back' to older versions in case it can't find the newer firmware files.

Great

I thought it might have been some custom file, but that's an error on my part.
Apparently it detects the 'internal' firmware version and reports that.

It could/might be there would be some improvement somewhere with newer 
firmware, but as long as things keep working that is fine.
Consequently, I've reassigned/renamed the bug to a request for a new upstream 
version (the one which has the -83 firmware file(s)).
