If there is still time to improve 2.0 version a little bit, i would suggest changing line 945:

  $output .= ' <span class="check-manually">'. l(t('Check manually'), 'admin/logs/updates/check') .'</span>';

to

  $output .= ' <span class="check-manually">('. l(t('Check manually'), 'admin/logs/updates/check') .')</span>';

(see added parenthesis after <span>)

This will enhance the output a little bit, because now the output is "XY minutes ago Check manually" and will be "XY minutes ago (Check manually)"

Good point. I also added some padding via CSS, so it's not so crammed together. Committed to DRUPAL-5--2.

Moving this into the core issue queue for a similar fix for the update.module. Attached patch applies cleanly against HEAD, and handles both LTR and RTL .css. Should be RTBC, but if someone else wants to take a quick look, that'd be nice. I'll attach screenshots of before and after in the next followups.

Still applies cleanly without offsets. Doesn't effect t() strings. Includes both LTR and RTL .css. I know it's my own patch, but this is RTBC.
