No, it isn't, IMO: they have different parents.

Unless you are saying that Handa-san used two different branches that
both forked at trunk r111954, I don't see how .1.97 can come before
.1.4 on the same branch.

In any case, what we need is references to revisions recorded in Emacs
bzr repo, not in foreign private branches, I hope you agree.
