Sometimes the publisher pulls a version due to errors and formatting problems. I have received emails when this happened and been able to chose between the older version with issues or the new version. Mor elikely then not the Publisher screwed up.
I would not say that this is similar to the 1984 mess because there is an updated version of the book available. I would call the Publisher and complain to them about the problem and see if they will give you a copy of the new version.
