FWIW it seems likely to me that the ObjC files in question were first developed outside the GCC tree, on a system where his username was dennisg, and then the ,v files from that development moved into the GCC tree, at which point he both started committing from a different system where he had the dglattin username, and started writing ChangeLog entries. I didn't e.g. check dates for when ObjC was released with GCC, but such a move of ,v files from one system to another would explain the different usernames. -- Joseph S. Myers jos...@codesourcery.com
