+ modify makefile rules to allow clear, tput and tset to be built
without libtic. The other programs (infocmp, tic and toe) rely on
that library.
+ add/modify null-pointer checks in several functions for SP and/or
the WINDOW* parameter (report by Thorben Krueger).
+ fixes for field_buffer() in formw library (see Redhat Bugzilla
#310071, patches by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ improve performance of NCURSES_CHAR_EQ code (patch by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ update/improve mlterm and rxvt terminfo entries, e.g., for
the modified cursor- and keypad-keys -TD
+ add test/savescreen.c test-program
+ add check to trace-file open, if the given name is a directory, add
".log" to the name and try again.
+ add konsole-256color entry -TD
+ add extra gcc warning options from xterm.
+ minor fixes for ncurses/hashmap test-program.
+ modify configure script to quiet c++ build with libtool when the
--disable-echo option is used.
+ modify configure script to disable ada95 if libtool is selected,
writing a warning message (addresses FreeBSD ports/114493).
+ update config.guess, config.sub
+ fix a bug in Ada95/samples/ncurses which caused a variable to
become uninitialized in the "b" test.
+ fix Ada95/gen/Makefile.in adahtml rule to account for recent
movement of files, fix a few incorrect manpage references in the
generated html.
+ add Ada95 binding to _nc_freeall() as Curses_Free_All to help with
memory-checking.
+ correct some functions in Ada95 binding which were using return value
from C where none was returned: idcok(), immedok() and wtimeout().
+ amend recent changes for Ada95 binding to make it build with
Cygwin's linker, e.g., with configure options
--enable-broken-linker --with-ticlib
+ add a configure check for gcc's options for inlining, use that to
quiet a warning message where gcc's default behavior changed from
3.x to 4.x.
+ improve warning message when checking if GPM is linked to curses
library by not warning if its use of "wgetch" is via a weak symbol.
+ add loader options when building with static libraries to ensure that
an installed shared library for ncurses does not conflict. This is
reported as problem with Tru64, but could affect other platforms
(report Martin Mokrejs, analysis by Tim Mooney).
+ fix build on cygwin after recent ticlib/termlib changes, i.e.,
+ adjust TINFO_SUFFIX value to work with cygwin's dll naming
+ revert a change from 20070303 which commented out dependency of
SHLIB_LIST in form/menu/panel/c++ libraries.
+ fix initialization of ripoff stack pointer (cf: 20070421).
+ modify configure check for libtool's version to trim blank lines
(report by sci-fi@hush.ai).
+ modify some modules to allow them to be reentrant if _REENTRANT is
defined: lib_baudrate.c, resizeterm.c (local data only)
+ eliminate static data from some modules: add_tries.c, hardscroll.c,
lib_ttyflags.c, lib_twait.c
+ improve manpage install to add aliases for the transformed program
names, e.g., from --program-prefix.
+ used linklint to verify links in the HTML documentation, made fixes
to manpages as needed.
+ fix a typo in curs_mouse.3x (report by William McBrine).
+ fix install-rule for ncurses5-config to make the bin-directory.
