M-x vc-annotate RET says:

1.20         (fx       02-Feb-00): ;;;###autoload
1.36         (monnier  04-Jul-06): (defun symbol-at-point ()
1.36         (monnier  04-Jul-06):   (let ((thing (thing-at-point 'symbol)))
1.36         (monnier  04-Jul-06):     (if thing (intern thing))))
1.20         (fx       02-Feb-00): ;;;###autoload

and `L' prints the same entry as in lisp/ChangeLog:

,----[ lisp/ChangeLog ]
| 2006-07-04  Stefan Monnier  <address@hidden>
| 
|       * thingatpt.el (symbol-at-point): Don't use `form-at-point' which
|       fails if the symbol contains chars like ( or '.
|       (bounds-of-thing-at-point): Remove unused vars `end' and `beg'.
|       (thing-at-point-bounds-of-url-at-point): Remove unused vars `url' and

Bye, Reiner.
