ChangeLog-0.8.3 is not a proper subset of ChangeLog, rather they
intersect till the branch point.
We want ChangeLog-0.8.3 to be the full thing, and the new ChangeLog
to start from the branch point.
The result would contain duplicated changes for 0.8.3 and 0.8.4
but that's how it was for real...

Automatic updates by bzr tools will change this all probably anyway.
