Looks like some kind of problem with automatic ChangeLog generation?
The commits it's complaining about are
commit 22729165f6bb902daeb8a4d8e7cb06982390f327

fixup: .git-log-fix should not be executable
* .fix-git-log: Set mode 644.
commit 3b369e6bbe0fb6d7359398935706c87dd9375cb6
Author: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattar...@gmail.com>
Date: Thu Feb 16 22:29:32 2012 +0100
maint: use AC_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT to avoid duplication
* configure.ac: In the message reporting whether the user is about

AC_PACKAGE_BUGREPORT macro instead of duplicating the bur reporting
address.
