The breakage was a bug, not deliberate.  It only shows up with old
modutils on kernel 2.4.0-test11.  I do my testing with the recommended
versions of software, modutils >= 2.3.16 works with 2.4.0-test11.
Since I still get complaints from people who try to run modutils
2.1.121 on 2.4 kernels, I should not be surprised that Changes is being
ignored, but it is the only official mechanism we have.
