In this (and only this) case, our practice is to omit functions modified
solely to introduce the new argument from the log message, and to append
to the entry designating the recipient of the new argument the words
``All callers changed.''

So long as the default value for the argument is straightforward, of
course.  If computing the argument demands non-trivial changes, then the
ChangeLog should relate them as it would any other.
