Don't plan on people's cvs log messages becoming predictable!

My SRV record patch for resolv.rb, for example, wasn't a doc patch, it
added a new record. It doesn't say in the cvs log that I put rdoc
comments on top, but I did, making them the only rdoc comments in all of
resolv.rb.

And the #sleep patch was just bundled in with a huge commit.

So, should we do something like  cvs diff | look_for_comments
where look_for_comments is some kind of ruby parser hacked to just
yield the comments -- maybe a stripped-to-the-bone rdoc?

{It's not like we're handling fortran and can just do cvs diff | glark '/^[+-].{5}c/i'
:-)}
