The uncompressed images on FTP are not affected. There is a known problem when creating the memstick images within chroot(8) in an i386 userland on an amd64 kernel. To work around this, a script runs after the release build for i386 that uses the amd64 binaries to regenerate the image. The problem with the xz(1)-compressed images on FTP is that the script was not removing the compressed versions that were already there, so xz(1) did not overwrite with the fixed images. This will be fixed for 9.3-RC3. Apologies to anyone that downloaded and had issues with the compressed i386 memstick.img and mini-memstick.img files, and Thank you to Juergen Lock (nox@) for pointing out the issue.
