If something is REALLY critical that needs to be fixed you can always use a
hack like adding a line of whitespace or something and re-committing (which
will work with any scm), but I'd only reserve that for when a changelog
entry is so factually wrong that it risks a real problem.

However, I'd really question whether ChangeLogs are the place to store such
a critical piece of documentation in the first place.  If it is THAT
important that users know about a change it should be in news.

I agree that it seems like we're at the point where "just a little better"
is becoming the enemy of "already way better than what we have."
