The result of the form after :eval is the mode-line format string to use, not
the final string itself.
What you observe is the effect of using "(25%)" (for example) as a mode-line
format string: since "%)" is not a valid format specification, it produces no
characters.
Thanks for reporting it just the same, and please do not let this dissuade you
from reporting things you think aren't right in the future!
