Normally we don't document bugs, but since the change to 5.3.0 was
supposed to be "internal" => "Core", I think this instance warrants
the documentation of the bug.

How best to document this?

 <refsect1 role="changelog">
  &reftitle.changelog;
  <para>
   <informaltable>
    <tgroup cols="2">
     <thead>
      <row>
       <entry>&Version;</entry>
       <entry>&Description;</entry>
      </row>
     </thead>
     <tbody>
      <row>
       <entry>5.3.1</entry>
       <entry>
        Windows only : Core constants are categorized under
<literal>Core</literal>,
        previously <literal>mhash</literal>.
       </entry>
      </row>
      <row>
       <entry>5.3.0</entry>
       <entry>
        Core constants are categorized under <literal>Core</literal>,
        previously <literal>internal</literal>. On Windows, the Core Constants
        are categorized under <literal>mhash</literal>.
       </entry>
      </row>
      <row>
       <entry>5.0.0</entry>
       <entry>
        The <parameter>categorize</parameter> parameter was added.
       </entry>
      </row>
     </tbody>
    </tgroup>
   </informaltable>
  </para>
 </refsect1>



Is acceptable?
