Inconsistent behavior of estadd across computers (same version and do file)

I am using STATA currently on a server and my own computers. I noticed during the last couple of days an inconsistency when using estadd after a regression. A simple example is the code:

Code:
 
sysuse auto.dta, clear
eststo xx: reg mpg price
estadd local bb "yea"
estadd local cc "yea"
estadd local dd "yea"
estadd local ee "yea"  

esttab xx, sca("bb ff" "cc fff" "dd aaa" "ee dds")
Where the expected result is the following:

Code:
----------------------------
                      (1)   
                    price   
----------------------------
mpg                -238.9***
                  (-4.50)   

_cons             11253.1***
                   (9.61)   
----------------------------
N                      74   
ff                    yea   
fff                   yea   
aaa                   yea   
dds                   yea   
----------------------------
t statistics in parentheses
* p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001
I do get that result on two of my computers while using STATA through a server only the first scalar after the regression is added. See below:

Code:
----------------------------
                      (1)   
                    price   
----------------------------
mpg                -238.9***
                  (-4.50)   

_cons             11253.1***
                   (9.61)   
----------------------------
N                      74   
ff                    yea   
fff                      
aaa                      
dds                      
----------------------------
t statistics in parentheses
* p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001
The first result is using STATA 13.1 on Windows 7 enterprise or Windows 10 and STATA 13.1 and the second using STATA14.1 through a server (Windows server 2012 R2 Standard). Note that I receive different results even if I use "version 13.1" on the server computer. This is a fairly new problem as I did not have a problem last week.

In both cases estout is up to date and the same do-file is used. See attachments for a snapshot pictures of the difference.

Any suggestions for why this is occurring?
