They held Flaming off the album for single release, which they paired with The Gnome.
See Emily Play was added to the LP.

You are correct sir! The tracklisting was also rearranged:

See Emily Play
Pow R Toc H
Take Up Thy Stethoscope and Walk
Lucifer Sam
Matilda Mother
The Scarecrow
The Gnome
Chapter 24
Interstellar Overdrive

Which I think is more than a bit stupid, really. I mean, not only did they eliminate the two best songs on the LP, they also screwed up the flow from song to song.
