Well, that's once again difference between the author date of the patch
and the commit date.  The patches were committed on 2010-04-25, and GCS
generally recommend using the commit date.  I prefer that to keep the
order in the ChangeLog as consistent as possible with the commit order.
Of course, that's not always possible in the presence of work done on
branches.

I'm applying this patch instead in your name, to maint.

Cheers,
Ralf
