OpenStudio VersionUpdater: incorrect EffectiveLeakageAreas

When opening an OpenStudio 1.4.0 version file in OpenStudio 1.11.0, I have observed that the inputs for

SpaceInfiltration:EffectiveLeakageArea

have been modified by a factor of 10000, i.e. if the original input was e.g. 20 cm2 then after updating to version 1.11.0 now we have 20000 cm2 (!). Note that in version 1.4.0 there was obviously a typo regarding the units, which red m(m2) instead of cm2, but it was still treated as cm2. This can also be verified by looking at the corresponding idf files exported by the respective OpenStudio versions.

Is this bug already known ?
