Background is that we try to track new releases of manually installed
software on our servers using a nagios check script. This script parses
the changelog files with a regular expression and searches the projects
download pages for new releases.

You've got version number also in index.php and iniset.php files.

I know :)

But from my experiences changelog usually is the best place to track
current version number. Developers (not you) often forget to update
version numbers in code files.
Do you have a reason for not adding the current version number to the
changelog? IMHO least it's a rather exceptional practice in open
source projects, isn't it?

I've wondered about that for some time too.

Normally, i would expect that Changelog entries without any
release header are under development.

I'd second to add a RELEASE line to the changelog upon release.
