As was the case with b. 3, in A the long accent is placed right under the note; however, in FE it was moved to the right, hence it could be interpreted as a  hairpin. This is how it was reproduced – moving it even further to the right – in EE2 (EE1 omitted the mark). The absence of the mark in GE is most probably an oversight of the engraver.

In the final part of the roulade (starting from c2), there are no accidentals in A (→FC,FE). The patent inaccuracy was corrected in GE and EE by adding the necessary sharps and a natural. See also notes to bars 32 and 36.
