mklog as is doesn't fill in the details (descriptions of the changes
to each function etc.), nor is realiable in many cases, and with Jason's
recent change just fills in the first and last part of the first line
but not the important middle part.
So, the developer has to hand edit it anyway and that I'd consider also
be the right time when the verification whether the PR being mentioned
is the right one etc.  So no need to add a question asked by the script
at another point.
