Reproducible by entering the following command from the console:
say §7§o[§b§l§oBold§7§o]§7 Bold text takes up lots of space sometimes

Bold text takes up lots of space sometimes

The issue comes from resetting the bold with colour chars. A temporary workaround until 1.5 would be to use the reset code before colour characters, to properly end the bold text.
For example:
say §7§o[§b§l§oBold§r§7§o]§7 Bold text takes up lots of space sometimes
