you forgot the to disable removing newline before "^T*":


        fix bug #[ 1607416 ]: back_trace is not initialized when it is a 
register
        * spvw.d (back_trace): do not init to NULL at the declaration, 
instead...
        (init_memory): init back_trace to NULL here

M-q ===>

        fix bug #[ 1607416 ]: back_trace is not initialized when it is a
        register * spvw.d (back_trace): do not init to NULL at the
        declaration, instead...
        (init_memory): init back_trace to NULL here

(note "* spvw.d" in the middle of a line).

also, when the function (or file) list is too long, M-q should preserve
the standard ChangeLog formatting:

        * foo (bar, baz, zot): quux

===>

        * foo (bar, baz)
        (zot); quux

instead of

        * foo (bar, baz,
        zot); quux

(for the sake of font-lock which can fontify the former but not the latter)
