* Emacs 23.1.1: M-q behaves differently in ChangeLog mode

Before upgrading from Emacs 22.2.1 to 23.1.1 (both under WinXP),
pressing M-q had the following behavior in ChangeLog mode.

Sample paragraph:

	* bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

After pressing M-q:

	* bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	  bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

After the upgrade, the result is different (two blanks are missing in
the last line):

	* bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

Any idea how to get back the old behavior?

Sorry, I think I made a mistake. IIRC, before the upgrade the behavior
was as follows:

Sample paragraph:

	* bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	  bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

After pressing M-q:

	* bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	  bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	  bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

Now, after pressing M-q, I get:

	* bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
	bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

Anyways, my question remains: Any idea how to get back the old
behavior?

What do you need the old behavior for?  The last sample is the correct
format of ChangeLog files.

Because that's the way I format many ChangeLog files. They're not
associated with software development, and they're not parsed by any
tools. So any, even remote, standard is of irrelevance.

Anyway, do you know how to change the behavior?

Not really.  Try to replace change-log-fill-paragraph with the version
from an older Emacs.  If that doesn't help, I think the change was not in
change-log-mode, but in fill-region, which change-log-fill-paragraph
calls.

Indeed, it is caused by a change in change-log-fill-paragraph. There,
the variable "fill-indent-according-to-mode" is set to true.

Without understanding the indenting interna, I changed the value of
the buffer local variable "indent-line-function" from "change-log-
indent" to "indent-relative". However, this doesn't have any effect.
Any idea how to solve the problem?

Just put the modified change-log-fill-paragraph in your ~/.emacs.

Already thought about that, but I don't like that solution. I keep
looking at what configuration options there are.
