Interesting idea. FYI, in gdb it pulls the date that you last did a 
'cvs update', which I suppose could be a problem if you've checked out 
a branch and not the mainline (although I think gdb accounts for this 
somehow). The problem with your patch is that it's possible someone 
would not put in a ChangeLog, but that's really a no-no anyway.
