I observed that in latest 15xx versions when adding surrounding brackets around a few selected lines of code the position of the brackets is not as I would expect. Usually I surround code with curly brackets in order to add some condition before the selected lines.

i can get something similar using VS2003, C++ and VA 1534, but not quite the same. for me it only happens if i select the text by starting at the bottom and using the keyboard, holding down shift while i press the up arrow.

if i select text by starting at the top and moving downwards this does not happen.

case=1521

There is also a known issue (case=1794) with the "surround selection with..." feature in combination with Unix line endings.

Indeed, I'm using VS2003, sorry for not mentioning that.
This happens to me, no matter if I start the selection at top and move downwards or start at the bottom and move upward.

In some occasions, I see that the closing bracket is appended to the last selected line instead of being inserted in a new line.
Interestingly, sometimes, if I Ctrl-Z after a pair of brackets is incorrectly placed, and I try again, now the brackets will be placed correctly.

does this happen in all files, or only some?

do your files have windows, UNIX or Mac line endings? file menu -> advanced save options may give you a clue if you are not sure.

Most of our source code is compiled also on Unix, so yes, the files have Unix line endings.
Just for the testing, I converted one of the files to DOS line ending and I got the same result as you described in your previous post, downward selection is surrounded OK, but not the upward.
