bug#4760: 23.1.50; C-x v a gone wild.

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the [email protected] mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

C-x v a computes change log entries for a very long time.
Then it inserts an entry with lot of old stuff included.
It doesn't respect user-full-name or user-mail-address.
The change isn't mentioned in NEWS, is there a switch to get back the
old C-x v a?

The entry here is what C-x v a inserted, the second is the
change I made and already made a change log entry for.
Note also the bad formatting (3 lines) done w.r.t. the original one
(2 lines).
