Yeah, tricky.  How about

    New contributors whose contributions weren't in $previous are as follows.
    Welcome to the Git development community!

Then after merging a topic to 'master' and then 'maint' and when
cutting v2.3.3, a new person will be listed as "not in v2.3.2" and
then again in the announcement for v2.4.0, as "not in v2.3.0".

Yes, it is cheating, but that would match the story the shortlog at
the end would tell.
