Because that's the only thing that makes sense.
If you merge a change originally from emacs-24 2014-04-01 into trunk today,
it goes at the top with today's date, because that is the date it
was added to trunk. Sorry, I don't know how else to explain it...

Again, bzrmerge.el in theory does this for you.
(In practice personally I use bzr's changelog_merge plugin and fix the
dates by hand.)

(I think this is all written in admin/notes/bzr "How to merge changes
from emacs-23 to trunk".)
