Alright.  Out of interest: is there a command for generating all of the
entries for a commit range?  I'm only aware of C-x 4 a
(add-change-log-entry-other-window) which seems to generate a change log
entry for the current file and only for the latest commit.

Agreed.

I've just made some fixes to the tests this morning (I had messed up the
merge of ia-utest.el and missed the whole of the cpproot directory for
utests.)  With that change the tests run with my current Emacs (which
runs the modified CEDET that I created by merging Emacs-CEDET -> CEDET.)

To anyone who has pulled my branch, scratch/merge-cedet-tests, I'd just
ask that you git pull -f because I rewrote that branches history to
correct my mistake.
