My Bloomsbury has: "Yeah," said Hagrid in a very muffled voice. "I'll be takin' Sirius 
his bike back. G'night, Professor McGonagall – Professor Dumbledore, sir."

Interestingly it doesn't have the year it was printed listed 
anywhere - it must be after 2000 because it has that as a Trademark 
date - but no actualy date of publication besides the First 
Published 1997.

Maybe this text was changed from earlier editions.
