Apparently I can't now run echangelog in a profile directory without a ChangeLog. After going up a directory with a ChangeLog file in place, the command does what it's supposed to.

# echangelog 'Mask USE=lxpanel for xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager (bug #520296).'
This should be run in a directory with ebuilds...
# ls
32ul  CVS   make.defaults  package.use.force  package.use.stable.mask  use.force
64ul  eapi  package.use    package.use.mask   parent                   use.mask
# ls ..
