(Writing this Changelog entry was a horrible horrible experience! And
I find it totally uninformative. I think there is something wrong with
our approach.)
I do agree with you that the current requirements for ChangeLog
entries aren't at all reasonable (or even useful) for large patches
of this type.
One thing that you should not do, however, is to use "Likewise." for
the first entry of a given ChangeLog file, because it looks like it
refers to the previous entry in the same ChangeLog:
fortran/
* f95-lang.c (gfc_mark_addressable): Likewise.
cp/
* typeck.c (composite_pointer_type_r): Likewise.
Otherwise, the fortran/ part of it is OK (and thanks for CC'ing the
fortran list!).
