I recently installed 6.x-1.3 and immediately I'm getting schema mismatch warnings. It seems that in the .install file in the oai2_install() function, you install the defined schema the normal way and then manually modify the oai2_tokens table with an SQL query. Is there a reason for this? (versus, say, fixing the schema and adding another oai2_update_n() function?)

function oai2_install(){
  $result = array();

  drupal_install_schema('oai2');

  $result[] = update_sql("ALTER TABLE {oai2_tokens} MODIFY COLUMN timestamp TIMESTAMP ");
...
}

That's a very good question, unfortunately, I can't give a very good answer. I can only speculate that that dates back to the 4.x or 5.x versions (where for whatever reason) that column could not be made a timestamp initially.

All that being said, there is no reason that should still be there and I'll fix it.
