Martin mostly answered Antoine's question for me.    You can get more
details by comparing the history of Lib/datetime.py in hg and svn.

The annotated view is completely inaccurate as a result:

$ svn blame -v Lib/datetime.py | awk '{print $2}'| sort | uniq -c
 664 alexander.belopolsky
   2 bcannon
 319 gvanrossum
1123 tim_one

$ hg blame -vu Lib/datetime.py | awk '{print $1,$2}'| sort | uniq -c
2112 Alexander Belopolsky

It looks like this history survived the cvs to svn migration, but was
lost in migration to hg.
