Thank-you letter incorrect contribution currency

Question

My setup: CiviCRM 5.20.0 on Drupal 7.

I entered contributions in different currencies. In Find Contributions, check some entries. At Actions select Thank-you letter print or email.

I put tokens Contributions:

{contribution.currency} {contribution.total_amount} {contribution.fee_amount} {contribution.net_amount}

and it gives me lines like these:

CNY HK$ 1,299.90 HK$ 0.00 HK$ 1,299.90

GBP HK$ 500.00 HK$ 0.00 HK$ 500.00

where CNY and GBP are the currencies of those contributions and HK$ is the symbol of the default currency.

It seems the amounts variables just took the system default.

Would you suggest some work-around? e.g. how to strip the wrong currency symbol.

Thank you.

I tried qualifiers like |replace:'HK$':'' but it breaks the smarty tag. — user9611631, Commented Dec 10, 2019 at 3:01
I did this: At CRM/Utils/Token.php line 1814 add a format parameter '%a' as a quick an dirty fix. Obviously future updates will overwrite my code. How can I make my code update-safe? — user9611631, Commented Dec 17, 2019 at 9:22

Well - there's a bug worth reporting here, but I understand your priority is getting these letters out. This should do the trick:
