I have reproduced this problem with:
chiark:~> ll /usr/src/debian-archive/private/project/pre-release/1440_boot_floppy.gz
-r--r--r-- 1 ian ian 686439 Sep 16 21:59 /usr/src/debian-archive/private/project/pre-release/1440_boot_floppy.gz
chiark:~> md5sum /usr/src/debian-archive/private/project/pre-release/1440_boot_floppy.gz
761e97a3c0be8fe6b8501e9c43d98f7d /usr/src/debian-archive/private/project/pre-release/1440_boot_floppy.gz

I didn't write down all the numbers and things again; they looked
roughly the same as the last time (quoted below).
