There is no guarantee that all bugs will show up in the changelog; the
changelog is built from the CVS logs - by hand, I think - and the
checkin for a change that I suspect would fix that problem is

  revision 1.51
  date: 2001/06/01 03:49:02;  author: itojun;  state: Exp;  lines: +147 -170
  cleanup.  do not use recurse for nd option priting.

which doesn't say anything about that particular bug.

I.e., the proper strategy is "try 3.7", not "check to see if the bug is
mentioned in the changelog and, if it is, try 3.7, otherwise assume that
the bug isn't fixed", as there's no guarantee that the absence of a note
in the changelog means it isn't fixed.
