One cannot see traces of performing changes in the rhythm of the top voice in the preserved sources. Moreover, it does not seem that one of the versions could have been erroneous; it is particularly excluded in the case of the rhythm of GC (→GE) and EE, confirmed by the compatible version of all sources in analogous bar 48. Therefore, it seems that the original single dotted rhythm, preserved in FE, was changed by Chopin into the double dotted rhythm in the base text to EE, from where it was copied to GC.
