 You're right, yes, we do. (But I bet we've got that wrong in the past, and
 backported bugfixes that say they're for a later version.)

 All the current changes files pass this new check, so let's see how we go.

 See my branch ticket27761, or https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/353 .

 I also tested that "bugfix on 0.3.5.1-alpha" works, but 0.3.5.2-alpha and
 0.4.5.1-alpha fail the check.

 I backported the change to 0.2.9 and 0.3.2, to check that their changes
 files pass this new check:
 * https://travis-ci.org/teor2345/tor/branches

 (But I don't think we need to backport this change.)
