Hmmm, it's quite likely that I messed up things, there. I remember
that I was indeed quite distracted while I was working on these
patches (turns out that someone was insisting to talk to me while I
was hacking on this stuff).

Even though this is not the best thing to do, I thing I'll correct the
changelog entry as I think it is better to have things properly
documented than stricly follow the mantra that "thou shalt not changed
published changelog entries".

THanks for the notice anyway.
