Nope, just interested viewers :)
Its a bit weird that both the version and patchlevel are the same. I wonder if those commands are just broken in Altera's implementation.
In my Tcl testing of quartus_stp and SystemConsole I found lots of inconsistencies. One would hope that Qsys Java Tcl (Jacl?) and SystemConsole Java Tcl are the same. Try running the info commands under SystemConsole and see if you get different results.
Cheers,

I don't have a cable at home, so it'll have to wait. I just wrote a workaround for the failing '**' operator, but I made that file almost 2 years ago and did use the module in Qsys.
But I just found the reason: initially I wrote the module under QII 12.1:
package require -exact qsys 12.1
which I later downgraded to 12.0 (sweeping over all _hw.tcl in a bulk operation ...). I put the 12.1 back and, yes, out comes 8.6
