You can sort of fix this by altering the file /usr/share/enigma2/display/skin_display.xml.

Look for this section in the file:

<!-- standby -->
	<screen name="StandbySummary" position="0,0" size="128,32">
		<widget source="global.CurrentTime" render="Label" position="0,0" size="128,22" font="FdLcD;18" halign="left" noWrap="1">
			<convert type="ClockToText">Format:%a  %e %b  %Y</convert>

If you look carefully at the line with Format %a has 2 spaces after it and %Y has 2 spaces before it. I for the time being removed the extra space after %a which should be enough to fix the issue.

A quick restart of the GUI and you can see the changes you've made for yourself when putting the box into standby. Might also be worth waiting for a day when the last digit disappears so that you can confirm your change fixes the issue.

You might have to re-edit the file with future updates or when you reflash.

Can't edit the above post but that didn't fix it for me, the 5 in 2015 is still being slightly cut off so I've now also removed the space between %b and %Y.
