Hmmm. There's something wrong with their copies then. I've just
created a new one using the PIK on my local mirror and I get
sledge:~$ ls -al /foo/pseudo-image
-rw-r--r-- 1 steve root 644112448 Dec 22 02:08 /foo/pseudo-image
which still doesn't match your size.

I'd suggest that you do an rsync against the image on the main site,
as there are problems with the mirrored copies. I'd also contact the
admins on those sites to tell them of the error.
