I don't know if there is, but you should probably check the archives for
the correct format of a ChangeLog.  This is also mentioned at
www.gnu.org, somewhere.  Submitting a ChangeLog with a patch is a pretty
standard net procedure.

This is almost correct, but if you look at the current Cygwin ChangeLog,
you can see that it is missing a function name and a period.

I'll add those and check this in.
