I like the clcommit script for catching problems like these - among other
things, it ensures that the ChangeLog entry isn't adding or removing
spurious lines.  I'm not sure if the cvs-utils project is still active, or
if Jim's vc-dwim project has something better, but here's the version of
the clcommit script in use on the m4 project:
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/*checkout*/m4/commit?revision=1.8&root=m4
