Hysterical Raisins

Recently I came across this weird phrase Hysterical Raisins while looking for redmine git plugin which supports mailmap, which led me to following link Nabble mailmap, apparently it's a pun for historical reasons and is for code which is present for backwards compatibility, but why such a weird pun, it is something which passes for programmer's humor.
