Well, our copy at school was on a 5.25" floppy, with a sticker over the write-protection, so we'd regularly take the sticker off, change the code, save the file, and put the sticker back. We didn't really know what we were doing, but finding arithmetic in code and changing it was not beyond the ability of a clever 6th grader.
So if people were getting the source from old floppies... changes could have come from kids like me who did not realize how obnoxious our decisions were are that point in our lives.
