dzen2 gives no output when right-aligned

http://i59.tinypic.com/slntc6.png
The bottom thing (colored the same as my terminals) is dzen2. As you can see, it doesn't output anything.
This is because I run it with -ta right. When I run it without -ta [something],  the output gets drawn like it is aligned to the right, except part of the output is cut off to the right. When I run it with -ta left, it works just fine, but I want it to be on the right side.

The top left terminal is my conky config.

Does something simple like

echo 'Hello World!' | dzen2 -p -ta r -fn terminus

work?

Edit: Output of `dzen2 -v`?

Re: dzen2 gives no output when right-aligned

the command you posted kind of works: it's certainly on the right of my screen, but not completely; there's a distance of approximately 1/6th of my screen to the right of the text.

dzen2 -v outputs

Same issue with the git version from aur?
