Yes, I do it that way too from time to time usually for smaller
changes that I might have to adapt somewhat. Jim's work is much more
substantial and only minor changes were required. I felt that Jim's
name should be prominent in the ChangeLog for this change.

If you really need to know who committed a change, the CVS logs and
mailing list traffic are available. Also, I believe there is ample
precedent in other projects (e.g. gcc) for the way I did things.

Yes, in the sense that we're taking Jim's patch as-is and we'll
worry about wchar_t changes at some later date.
