I want to suggest a small example (not related to your check, but
related to your question).

When I want to build package for old branch I do smth like that:
1) Merge master to Mxx branch
2) Decrease release, add .Mxx to it
3) add_changelog

Let's take a look at this changelog:

- Mon Jan 01 2000 Vasiliy Pupkin <vpupkin@altlinux> 1.0-alt0.Mxx.1
- build for M51

- Mon Jan 01 2000 Vasiliy Pupkin <vpupkin@altlinux> 1.0-alt1
- New release 1.0

- Mon Jan 01 1999 Vasiliy Pupkin <vpupkin@altlinux> 0.9-alt1
- New release 0.9

I think it's ugly because smaller version is on top. I usualy remove
second entry:

- Mon Jan 01 2000 Vasiliy Pupkin <vpupkin@altlinux> 1.0-alt0.Mxx.1
- New release 1.0 for Mxx

- Mon Jan 01 1999 Vasiliy Pupkin <vpupkin@altlinux> 0.9-alt1
- New release 0.9
