See my comment above, you know him better than me, but if I really wanted it to stop I'd ask politely one day, assuming good intentions (see my top level comment) why he does it. Something along the lines of: "I've noticed that you've rewritten my code a number of times and got <buddy> to approve it, and I really haven't been able to figure out why." If so, be prepared, some people can be a bit either on or off I guess.
