The dots extending the e1-f1 second are not distinctly copied in FE, so in fact only the lower one is visible (perhaps some corrections were performed there). In GE they were completely omitted and from GE2 on, the upper voice was completed with a quaver rest at the end of the bar. The latter was introduced also in EE4.

Slur in A

No slur in FE (→GE,EE2)

Slur in EE3 (→EE4)
..

Lack of the slur in FE (→GE,EE2) is most probably accidental. In EE3 (→EE4) a slur embracing two bars was added, which is hard to contest.
