+ add note about configure options needed for Berkeley database to the
INSTALL file.
+ improve checks for version of Berkeley database libraries.
+ amend fix for rpath to not modify LDFLAGS if the platform has no
applicable transformation (report by Christian Ebert, cf: 20071124).
+ modify configure option --with-hashed-db to accept a parameter which
is the install-prefix of a given Berkeley Database (prompted by
pierre4d2 comments).
+ rewrite wrapper for wcrtomb(), making it work on Solaris. This is
used in the form library to determine the length of the buffer needed
by field_buffer (report by Alfred Fung).
+ remove unneeded window-parameter from C++ binding for wresize (report
by Chris Lee).
+ modify the support for filesystems which do not support mixed-case to
generate 2-character (hexadecimal) codes for the lower-level of the
filesystem terminfo database (request by Michail Vidiassov).
+ add configure option --enable-mixed-case, to allow overriding the
configure script's check if the filesystem supports mixed-case
filenames.
+ add wresize() to C++ binding (request by Chris Lee).
+ define NCURSES_EXT_FUNCS and NCURSES_EXT_COLORS in curses.h to make
it simpler to tell if the extended functions and/or colors are
declared.
+ make _nc_capalias_table and _nc_infoalias_table private, accessed via
_nc_get_alias_table() since they are used only by parse_entry.c
+ make _nc_key_names private since it is used only by lib_keyname.c
+ add --disable-big-strings configure option to control whether
unctrl.c is generated using the big-string optimization - which may
use strings longer than supported by a given compiler.
+ reduce relocation tables for tic, infocmp by changing type of
internal hash tables to short, and make those private symbols.
+ eliminate large fixed arrays from progs/infocmp.c
+ increase size of array in _nc_visbuf2n() to make "tic -v" work
properly in its similar_sgr() function (report/analysis by Peter
Santoro).
+ add --enable-reentrant configure option for ongoing changes to
implement a reentrant version of ncurses:
+ libraries are suffixed with "t"
+ wrap several global variables (curscr, newscr, stdscr, ttytype,
COLORS, COLOR_PAIRS, COLS, ESCDELAY, LINES and TABSIZE) as
functions returning values stored in SCREEN or cur_term.
+ move some initialization (LINES, COLS) from lib_setup.c,
i.e., setupterm() to _nc_setupscreen(), i.e., newterm().
+ fixes for $(TICS_LIST) in ncurses/Makefile (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ modify relinking of shared libraries to apply only when rpath is
enabled, and add --disable-relink option which can be used to
disable the feature altogether (reports by Michail Vidiassov,
Adam J Richter).
+ fix --with-termlib option for wide-character configuration, stripping
the "w" suffix in one place (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ remove "-ldl" from some library lists to reduce dependencies in
programs (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ correct description of --enable-signed-char in configure --help
(report by Michail Vidiassov).
+ add pattern for GNU/kFreeBSD configuration to CF_XOPEN_SOURCE,
which matches an earlier change to CF_SHARED_OPTS, from xterm #224
fixes.
+ remove "${DESTDIR}" from -install_name option used for linking
shared libraries on Darwin (report by Michail Vidiassov).
+ add a break-statement in misc/shlib to ensure that it exits on the
_first_ matched directory (report by Paul Novak).
+ add tack/configure, which can be used to build tack outside the
ncurses build-tree.
+ add --with-ticlib option, to build/install the tic-support functions
in a separate library (suggestd by Miroslav Lichvar).
