Yes, most likely you have stored these files on a machine which have
a bit-error in bit 1 somewhere in its memory, therefore causing s to
become q. This is most likely a PC because they normally don't have
parity memory and this won't be detected. The VAXen all have parity
memories so it's not likely it is caused there.
You should refetch this, it may be broken in some less obvious places
besides this.
