As Andy has said, this information is not stored in the repository.
However, as a workaround (read: hack), you could commit the binary in
its own revision. Then, modify the revision date/time property to be
the modification time you require (note: I haven't tested this). This
will mean that that revision appears as committed, in your example,
back in 2002, so any revision searching you do based on dates will be
inaccurate.
