See how the e-mail message was formatted in that thread. I just ran "am" on it (which makes me responsible for committing), and the authorship comes from the "From:" that was in the body. I suspect he may have based the patch on some of the "how about doing it like so" suggestions I made during an earlier discussion and wanted to give me credit for the input, but I do not remember the context the patch was originally written in X-<.
