Just a quick note: this is not how ChangeLog entries that span several lines should be formatted, according to standards.texi. You should do it like this: * mips.igen (do_dsll, do_dsllv, DSLL32, do_dsra, DSRA32, do_dsrl) (DSRL32, do_dsrlv): Trace inputs and results. That is, close the parens on each line and open them anew on the next one. One reason for this format is that Emacs highlights parts of the entries in different colors, and it depends on this format to DTRT. Another reason is that it makes it easier to grep ChangeLog files for function/variable names. If you use Emacs 21.1 or later, the command "C-x 4 a", when typed inside the function/variable definition for which you need to write a ChangeLog entry, will do the above formatting automatically for you.
