LGTM.
I wonder if we also shouldn't accept
C++NN PNNNNNRN - text
or maybe also or instead
PNNNNNRN - text
?
I think that was what was used before the switch to git, now one
usually attempts to put it somewhere in the middle of the ChangeLog
entry, after some filename: at least.
Anyway, after committing this needs to be installed manually on sourceware
(I can do that).
