It is a "side-effect" from images separation.  I will work on the fix.

I have a fix. 
http://people.freebsd.org/~blackend/tarballs/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ 
contains fixed tarballs. 
I will commit the fix soon.

I committed the fix.  It will probably take a while before the FTP 
server and the mirrors provide correct tarballs, in that case please use 
the ones at

Thanks for the notice.
