Actually that changelog is wrong, but this commit got reverted because it
triggered some crap code.
After we fixed that it was brought back with:
020eb3daaba2857b32c4cf4c82f503d6a00a67de
The related fixes are:
47512cfd0d7a8bd6ab71d01cd89fca19eb2093eb
6cf18e6927c0b224f972e3042fb85770d63cb9f8
which are both tagged for stable as well.
Thanks,
