Can we relax this to say "no substantive changes"?
If we fix a typo or even wording:
"[1234] lustre has dropped the ball and erased all your data" to
"[1234] an irrecoverable error has occurred and erased all filesystem data"
doesn't seem to me that it should require a new message number. Parsing tools should
just check the number and not worry about the exact contents of the message.
I think that's the whole point of having a [number] in the first place.

I'll agree that for messages like

Lustre [ID 1234]: Server handling error on server [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
transaction 11602746/0, opcode 42 returned -2

we can't change the keyword preceding and data items
