No, there's nothing wrong, it's simply that Frescobaldi doesn't
automatically detect when the version has changed. I think it stores the
version numbers somewhere in its settings.
To update the version for the \version command and the display in the
log go to Edit->Preferences->LilyPond Preferences, select your version
and open the "edit..." dialog once. You don't have to do anything there
but the Lily version should be updated afterwards.
