Bob made a (small) code change, and described it in the CVS log, but
didn't add a ChangeLog entry.  I asked him to make a ChangeLog entry,
and gave my opinion that CVS log entries are not sufficient for
bug-tracking purposes (for any code change).  From his reply, I gather
than the documentation contradicts this position.
