I suppose that the expectation is that every release note item
will be credited to someone. Why does this item lack a credit?
If we're okay with items not having credits, then
add_commit_links.pl's logic for where to put the <ulink>s needs
improvement. I don't really understand why it's looking for
parens in the first place -- why isn't the rule simply "put them
before the first </para> in the item"?
In either case, I don't agree with hacky workarounds like manually
munged ulink entries ...

The release freeze doesn't apply to the release notes ;-)
