John has noticed that the intracluster light profiles are too green in DR9/north, apparently due to a change in the z-band sky levels. The suspicion is that the CP used for DR9 did more high-spatial-frequency filtering for MzLS.

Here's one comparison of DR8 vs. DR9:

It looks like this issue is pretty prevalent. Here are 50 clusters all at Dec>32:
