  | 	no, i attached a short summary of changes made to the original
  | 	distribution.

If you mean the one a week or so ago, where people complained, the
change note, at least as it was distributed via source-changes was
"PR nnnn" or "See PR nnnn" - and just that (I remember seeing it at
the time), that's why people complained.

If you intended to include a summary, and it just didn't happen,
that's OK (though that commit's log should be fixed if it hasn't
been already) or if perhaps CVS and/or gnats managed to lose it in
what was sent to source-changes, then there's no real issue here (just
a bug to fix perhaps, somewhere).

On the other hand, if you're referring to some other occasion, when
a summary was included and people complained, then I don't have the
context to comment.
