It should be in the archive....
During development of 2.5 there was a problem discovered by a user
that had eluded most others. I don't now remember the exact details,
but something on these lines:
1. Create a branch
2. Add a binary file on the branch
3. Commit changes to that file
4. Maybe also delete an intermediate revision, but I am not sure.

Now the file is corrupted. But only if it was added on the branch and
only if it was binary...
An archive search might reveal the whole story. A number of builds had
this problem but it was fixed once discovered.
