 easily fake this of course). ;-)

 I don't see the point why this information is useful, one would better
 look at the `hg log` or `SPKG.txt` for this.  With my current merge-script
 this information is lost anyway because every spkg is unpacked and
 repacked (in between changes are committed, a `hg tag` is added and the
 spkg is checked for some obvious mistakes).
