I don't think it's relevant whether the timestamps are right or wrong.  There
will be valid reasons where sorting by ID and by timestamp give different
results (e.g. transwiki imports, or article merges).  The problem is that the
sorting is done by timestamps in one place (revision list), and IDs in another
('diff with previous' link).

All sorting of revisions should be done by timestamp, then ID, in all cases. 
This would remove inconsistencies within the various user interfaces where
revisions are displayed/used.

Problems on the cluster that result in incorrect timestamps (if they exist) are
a completely separate issue, and should be handled by a different bug.
