Grrrmhhh, was it so much unclear? I mean: "stable on x86" definitely belongs to
changelogs, while "stable on x86, thanks Jim for opening a keywording bug, Jack
and Jim for testing and Joe for reminding me five times to mark it finally
stable when I forgot about it" does NOT.

It's the responsibility of the developer who keyworded the thing anyway, ATs
are not allowed to keyword stuff and don't have RW CVS access, so what is the
purpose of tracking such stuff in changelogs and cluttering them? Use CVS
commit messages to track such things if you think you need it.
