No, actually, I didn't notice it.

In my version it says the following:
"Thought we'd see what those three were up to," said Fred
matter-of-factly, stepping onto Goyle and into the compartment. He
had his wand out, and so did George, who was careful to tread on
Malfoy as he followed Fred inside.

and then:
 Ron, Harry, and George kicked, rolled, and pushed the unconscious
Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle - each of whom looked distinctly the
worse for the jumble of jinxes with which they had been hit - out
into the corridor, then came back into the compartment and rolled
the door shut.


A little later:
Ron and
Hermione struggled out past Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle, carrying
their trunks. Harry, however, stayed put.

And after giving Fred and George the money:
 He left the compartment before they could say another word,
stepping over Malfoy, Crabbe,
and Goyle, who were still lying on the floor, covered in hex marks.

So, the only ones making it a point to step on somebody are
Fred and George.

And Harry doesn't mind helping to kick and push the
unconscious Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle out of the compartment.
