Mike, SystemImager always formats swap and filesystem partitions only if they're active on the golden client. A partition is active if it's mounted on the golden client and a swap partition is active only if the golden client is using it. Look in Common.pm, function get_active_swaps_by_dev(): the command `swapon -s` is used to check if a swap partition is active or not.
What's the output of `swapon -s` in your golden client?
