Only because the filters haven't been tuned to exclude non-source files
by default for all of the syntax check rules.  It's not too hard to add
ChangeLog to a permanent per-file exemption, by adding:

VC_LIST_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE_REGEX = ^ChangeLog$$

to cfg.mk.  Modify that regex as needed to permanently skip other files
from the maint.mk syntax checks.
