It was both.

"There is something very strange going on with the
   FTP server on ftp.bitchx.org. In some cases, it serves up the trojaned
   version; in others, the original, safe version.
   This indicates that someone has (at least) also tampered with the FTP
   server software itself; most likely the server has been rooted. We
   have reported this issue to BitchX developers, and they are
   investigating. In the meantime, we suggest everyone should treat
   anything downloaded from the ftp.bitchx.org server with extreme
   skepticism."

Hope this clears things up ;)
