Viewer sometimes misses letters in host name

Hi, bit of a weird bug here. Say I want to connect to HostABC, I will open
up VNC Viewer and type "HostABC" or select "HostABC" from the recents list,
and hit connect. After a few seconds it becomes obvious that something
didn't work, after a short time I get back a message "HstABC - TightVNC
Viewer: Error in TightVNC Viewer: No such host is known" The problem is
immediately obvious, "HstABC" is missing the "o".

Upon closing the error message and opening the viewer again, I can see the
host name in the drop down and confirm it was correctly typed as "HostABC".
Somewhere after that text box the host name gets mangled. Trying to connect
again (hitting connect without changing anything) often work, but it may
take 2 or 3 tries.

Now, I'm not sure if the viewer is really trying to connect to HstABC or if
there's some other problem, and the error box is showing the wrong name
coincidentally. This bug is not common but definitely not rare. I might see
it every 100 or so connections.

Has anyone else seen this issue before?

Viewer is version 2.8.64
Server version 2.8.27 (or newer, I have quite a few hosts this has happened
on).
