  b. 92-93

Wedges in A

No signs in GE1 or EE

Dots in FE

Dots in GE2 (→GE3)

In A, the quavers a flat at the beginning of those bars have wedges;  in GE1 the wedges were omitted. In FE, staccato dots were added instead, which is most probably the result of Chopin's intervention. Dots were also added in GE2 (→GE3). Absence of any signs in EE might mean that some of the changes in FE were introduced after copies had been sent to London as base texts for EE1.
