Thank you! Applied. I adapted the change log message to follow Guile
conventions; it was:

As applied:
Correct note about Gregorian reform in SRFI-19
* doc/ref/srfi-modules.texi (SRFI-19): SRFI-19 specifies proleptic use
of the Gregorian calendar, so it was incorrect of the documentation to
describe the code as erroneous in doing so. Rewrite the caution more
neutrally, and move it to the section about the "date" structure, where
it seems most relevant.
Note capitalization of the summary line and an inclusion of the file and
section/function in the commit message. I know the file is redundant
but this is how we currently do it. If you use Emacs and Magit,
pressing "C" (capital) in a Magit diff will add this info to the commit
log for you.
