I believe Shimano offered the first 8-speed Dura Ace hubs with those beveled locknuts since nearly everything was spaced 126 mm at the time. Installing a 130 mm hub in 126 mm dropouts can be a bit of a struggle but the 128 mm dropouts I've dealt with were no effort at all.
More recently, Surly spaces a couple of their frames (the Cross Check for one) at 132.5 mm to accept 130 mm road hubs or 135 mm MTB hubs and the wider hubs are easy to fit.
