+ fix some gcc 4.8 -Wconversion warnings.
+ change format of dpkg test-scripts to quilted to work around bug
introduced by Debian #700177.
+ discard cached keyname() values if meta() is changed after a value
was cached using (report by Kurban Mallachiev).
+ modify configure script to allow creating dll's for MinGW when
cross-compiling.
+ add --enable-string-hacks option to control whether strlcat and
strlcpy may be used. The same issue applies to OpenBSD's warnings
about snprintf, noting that this function is weakly standardized.
+ add configure checks for strlcat, strlcpy and snprintf, to help
reduce bogus warnings with OpenBSD builds.
+ build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 to supply consistent intptr_t declaration
(cf:20111231)
+ update config.guess, config.sub
+ modify nc_tparm.h, adding guards against repeated inclusion, and
allowing TPARM_ARG to be overridden.
+ fix some strict compiler warnings in ncurses library.
+ for term-driver configuration, ensure that the driver pointer is
initialized in setupterm so that terminfo/termcap programs work.
+ amend fix for Debian #542031 to ensure that wattrset() returns only
OK or ERR, rather than the attribute value (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ reorder WINDOWLIST to put WINDOW data after SCREEN pointer, making
_nc_screen_of() compatible between normal/wide libraries again (patch
by Miroslav Lichvar)
+ review/fix include-dependencies in modules files (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ add configure script --enable-sp-funcs to enable the new set of
extended functions.
+ start integrating patches by Juergen Pfeifer:
+ add extended functions which specify the SCREEN pointer for several
curses functions which use the global SP (these are incomplete;
some internals work is needed to complete these).
+ add special cases to configure script for MinGW port.
+ modify wgetch() to use the screen which corresponds to its window
parameter rather than relying on SP; some dependent functions still
use SP internally.
+ factor out most use of SP in lib_mouse.c, using parameter.
+ add internal _nc_keyname(), replacing keyname() to associate with a
particular SCREEN rather than the global SP.
+ add internal _nc_unctrl(), replacing unctrl() to associate with a
particular SCREEN rather than the global SP.
+ add internal _nc_tracemouse(), replacing _tracemouse() to eliminate
its associated global buffer _nc_globals.tracemse_buf now in SCREEN.
+ add internal _nc_tracechar(), replacing _tracechar() to use SCREEN in
preference to the global _nc_globals.tracechr_buf buffer.
+ add 9term terminal description (request by Juhapekka Tolvanen) -TD
+ modify comp_hash.c's string output to avoid misinterpreting a null
"\0" followed by a digit.
+ modify MKnames.awk and MKcodes.awk to support big-strings.
This only applies to the cases (broken linker, reentrant) where
the corresponding arrays are accessed via wrapper functions.
+ split MKnames.awk into two scripts, eliminating the shell redirection
which complicated the make process and also the bogus timestamp file
which was introduced to fix "make -j".
+ add test/test_opaque.c, test/test_arrays.c
+ add wgetscrreg() and wgetparent() for applications that may need it
when NCURSES_OPAQUE is defined (prompted by Bryan Christ).
+ 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
+ corrected xterm+pcf2 terminfo modifiers for F1-F4, to match xterm
#226 -TD
+ split-out key_name() from MKkeyname.awk since it now depends upon
wunctrl() which is not in libtinfo (report by Rong-En Fan).
+ add test/key_name.c
+ add stdscr cases to test/inchs.c and test_inch_wide.c
+ update test/configure
+ correct formatting of DEL (0x7f) in _nc_vischar().
+ null-terminate result of wunctrl().
+ add null-pointer check in key_name() (report by Andreas Krennmair,
cf: 20020901).
+ modify keyname() to use "^X" form only if meta() has been called, or
if keyname() is called without initializing curses, e.g., via
initscr() or newterm() (prompted by LinuxBase #1604).
+ document some portability issues in man/curs_util.3x
+ add a shadow copy of TTY buffer to _nc_prescreen to fix applications
broken by moving that data into SCREEN (cf: 20061230).
+ change MKunctrl.awk to reduce relocation table for unctrl.o
+ change MKkeyname.awk to reduce relocation table for keyname.o
(patch by Miroslav Lichvar).
