OK, but ChangeLog entries don't need all the explanation.

	* config/tc-mcore.c (md_begin): Use a const iterator.  Don't
	coalesce the name fields to use the same pointer.

	* config/tc-sh.c (md_begin): Use a const iterator.  Don't coalesce
	the name fields to use the same pointer.
	(get_specific): Check for opcodes with the same name using strcmp
	as well as comparing the pointer.
