It's not ideal even in a ChangeLog entry. I can understand why people
do it, but a real e-mail address is preferred. The point of an e-mail
address in a ChangeLog entry is so that people can send you e-mail, but
we make no promises that we will accept e-mail to @gcc.gnu.org addresses
from outside gcc.gnu.org itself.
I wouldn't switch to @sourceware.org either.
Sorry.
