The log message suggests it was a deliberate choice, and there was some discussion about it after the fact. See https://svn.apache.org/r1295006 and https://marc.info/?t=139866097800008&r=1&w=2 Anyway, since this code lives in the ASF repository there was nothing that could be done to undo the copy without impacting every ASF project.
