+ add -brtl option to compiler options on AIX 5-7, needed to link
with the shared libraries.
+ add --with-extra-suffix option to help with installing nonconflicting
ncurses6 packages, e.g., avoiding header- and library-conflicts.
NOTE: as a side-effect, this renames
adacurses-config to adacurses5-config and
adacursesw-config to adacursesw5-config
+ modify debian/rules test package to suffix programs with "6".
+ clarify in curs_inopts.3x that window-specific settings do not
inherit into new windows.
+ minor portability fixes for MinGW:

"trace" feature:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20877689/gcc-4-8-1-minggw-d-option-does-not-work-as-usual
+ fix most compiler warnings for Cygwin ncurses-examples.
+ restore "redundant" -I options in test/Makefile.in, since they are
typically needed when building the derived ncurses-examples package
(cf: 20140726).
+ separate masking for sgr in vidputs from sitm/ritm, which do not
overlap with sgr functionality.
+ remove unneeded -i option from adacurses-config; put -a in the -I
option for consistency (patch by Pascal Pignard).
+ update xterm-new to patch #305 -TD
+ change format of test-scripts for Debian Ada95 and ncurses-examples
packages to quilted to work around Debian #700177 (cf: 20130907).

+ correct syntax for padding in some entries: dg211, h19 -TD
+ correct ti924-8 which had confused padding versus octal escapes -TD
+ correct padding in sbi entry -TD
+ fix an old bug in the termcap emulation; "%i" was ignored in tparm()
because the parameters to be incremented were already on the internal
stack (report by Corinna Vinschen).
+ modify tic's "-c" option to take into account the "-C" option to
activate additional checks which compare the results from running
tparm() on the terminfo expressions versus the translated termcap
expressions.
+ modify tic to allow it to read from FIFOs (report by Matthieu Fronton,
cf: 20120324).
> patches by Nicolas Boulenguez:
+ explicit dereferences to suppress some style warnings.
+ when c_varargs_to_ada.c includes its header, use double quotes
instead of <>.
+ samples/ncurses2-util.adb: removed unused with clause. The warning
was removed by an obsolete pragma.
+ replaced Unreferenced pragmas with Warnings (Off). The latter,
available with older GNATs, needs no configure test. This also
replaces 3 untested Unreferenced pragmas.
+ simplified To_C usage in trace handling. Using two parameters allows
some basic formatting, and avoids a warning about security with some
compiler flags.
+ for generated Ada sources, replace many snippets with one pure
package.
+ removed C_Chtype and its conversions.
+ removed C_AttrType and its conversions.
+ removed conversions between int, Item_Option_Set, Menu_Option_Set.
+ removed int, Field_Option_Set, Item_Option_Set conversions.
+ removed C_TraceType, Attribute_Option_Set conversions.
+ replaced C.int with direct use of Eti_Error, now enumerated. As it
was used in a case statement, values were tested by the Ada compiler
to be consecutive anyway.
+ src/Makefile.in: remove duplicate stanza
+ only consider using a project for shared libraries.
+ style. Silent gnat-4.9 warning about misplaced "then".
+ generate shared library project to honor ADAFLAGS, LDFLAGS.
+ add special case to configure script to move _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
definition from CPPFLAGS to CFLAGS if it happens to be needed for
Solaris, because g++ errors with that definition (report by
Jean-Pierre Flori, Sage #15268).
+ correct logic in infocmp's -i option which was intended to ignore
strings which correspond to function-keys as candidates for piecing
together initialization- or reset-strings. The problem dates to
1.9.7a, but was overlooked until changes in -Wlogical-op warnings for
gcc 4.8 (report by David Binderman).
+ updated CF_GCC_WARNINGS to documented options for gcc 4.9.0, adding
checks for -Wextra, -Wignored-qualifiers and -Wlogical-op
+ updated CF_GCC_WARNINGS to documented options for gcc 4.9.0, moving
checks for -Wextra and -Wdeclaration-after-statement into the macro,
and adding checks for -Wignored-qualifiers, -Wlogical-op and
-Wvarargs
+ updated CF_CURSES_UNCTRL_H and CF_SHARED_OPTS macros from ongoing
work on cdk.
+ update config.sub from
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git

+ update config.guess, config.sub from
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git

needed to make test/dots_mvcur work.
+ reduce calls to SetConsoleActiveScreenBuffer in win_driver.c, to
help reduce flicker.
+ modify configure script to omit "+b" from linker options for very
old HP-UX systems (report by Dennis Grevenstein)
+ add HP-UX workaround for missing EILSEQ on old HP-UX systems (patch
by Dennis Grevenstein).
+ restore memmove/strdup support for antique systems (request by
Dennis Grevenstein).
+ change %l behavior in tparm to push the string length onto the stack
rather than saving the formatted length into the output buffer
(report by Roy Marples, cf: 980620).
+ improve CF_GCC_VERSION to work around Debian's customization of gcc
--version message.
+ improve configure macros as done in byacc:
+ drop 2.13 compatibility; use 2.52.xxxx version only since EMX port
has used that for a while.
+ add 3rd parameter to AC_DEFINE's to allow autoheader to run, i.e.,
for experimental use.
+ remove unused configure macros.
+ modify configure script and makefiles to quiet new autoconf warning
for LIBS_TO_MAKE variable.

+ make sgr for ndr9500 agree with other caps -TD
+ make sgr for sco-ansi agree with other caps -TD
+ make sgr for d410 agree with other caps -TD
+ make sgr for d210 agree with other caps -TD
+ make sgr for d470c, d470c-7b agree with other caps -TD
+ remove redundant AC_DEFINE for NDEBUG versus Makefile definition.
+ fix a back-link in _nc_delink_entry(), which is needed if ncurses is
configured with --enable-termcap and --disable-getcap.
+ update Ada95/configure to use CF_DISABLE_ECHO (cf: 20120317).
+ correct order of use-clauses in st-256color -TD
+ modify configure script to look for gnatgcc if the Ada95 binding
is built, in preference to the default gcc/cc (suggested by
Nicolas Boulenguez).
+ modify configure script to ensure that the same -On option used for
the C compiler in CFLAGS is used for ADAFLAGS rather than simply
using -O3 (suggested by Nicolas Boulenguez)
+ correct a check made in lib_napms.c, so that terminfo applications
can again use napms() (cf: 20110604).
+ add a note in tic.h regarding required casts for ABSENT_BOOLEAN
(cf: 20040327).
+ correct scripting for --disable-echo option in test/configure.
+ amend check for missing c++ compiler to work when no error is
reported, and no variables set (cf: 20021206).

+ add --with-lib-prefix option to allow configuring for old/new flavors
of OS/2 EMX.
+ modify check for gnat version to allow for year, as used in FreeBSD
port.
+ modify check_existence() in db_iterator.c to simply check if the
path is a directory or file, according to the need. Checking for
directory size also gives no usable result with OS/2 (cf: 20120107).
+ support OS/2 kLIBC (patch by KO Myung-Han).
+ correct logic for discarding mouse events, retaining the partial
events used to build up click, double-click, etc, until needed
(cf: 20110917).
+ fix configure script to avoid creating unused Ada95 makefile when
gnat does not work.
+ cleanup width-related gcc 3.4.3 warnings for 64-bit platform, for the
internal functions of libncurses. The external interface of courses
uses bool, which still produces these warnings.
+ modify _nc_read_tic_entry() so that hashed-database is checked before
filesystem.
+ updated CF_CURSES_LIBS check in test/configure script.
+ modify configure script and makefiles to split TIC_ARGS and
TINFO_ARGS into pieces corresponding to LDFLAGS and LIBS variables,
to help separate searches for tic- and tinfo-libraries (patch by Nick
Alcock aka "Nix").
+ build-fix for lib_mouse.c changes (ch: 20110917).
+ modify misc/gen_edit.sh to select a "linux" entry which works with
the current kernel rather than assuming it is always "linux3.0"
(cf: 20110716).
+ revert a change to getmouse() which had the undesirable side-effect
of suppressing button-release events (report by Damien Guibouret,
cf: 20100102).
+ add xterm+kbs fragment from xterm #272 -TD
+ add configure option --with-pkg-config-libdir to provide control over
the actual directory into which pc-files are installed, do not use
the pkg-config environment variables (discussion with Frederic L W
Meunier).
+ add link to mailing-list archive in announce.html.in, as done in
FAQ (prompted by question by Andrius Bentkus).
+ improve manpage install by adjusting the "#include" examples to
show the ncurses-subdirectory used when --disable-overwrite option
is used.
+ install an alias for "curses" to the ncurses manpage, tied to the
--with-curses-h configure option (suggested by Reuben Thomas).
+ replace an assert() in _nc_Free_Argument() with a regular null
pointer check (report/analysis by Franjo Ivancic).

+ fix inconsistent tabset path in pcmw (Todd C. Miller).
+ remove a backslash which continued comment, obscuring altos3
definition with OpenBSD toolset (Nicholas Marriott).
+ various build-fixes for the rpm/dpkg scripts.
+ add "--enable-rpath-link" option to Ada95/configure, to allow
packages to suppress the rpath feature which is normally used for
the in-tree build of sample programs.
+ corrected definition of libdir variable in Ada95/src/Makefile.in,
needed for rpm script.
+ add "--with-shared" option to Ada95/configure script, to allow
making the C-language parts of the binding use appropriate compiler
options if building a shared library with gnat.
> portability fixes for Ada95 binding:
+ add configure check to ensure that SIGINT works with gnat. This is
needed for the "rain" sample program. If SIGINT does not work, omit
that sample program.
+ correct typo in check of $PKG_CONFIG variable in Ada95/configure
+ add ncurses_compat.c, to supply functions used in the Ada95 binding
which were added in 5.7 and later.
+ modify sed expression in CF_NCURSES_ADDON to eliminate a dependency
upon GNU sed.
+ add special check in Ada95/configure script for ncurses6 reentrant
code.
+ regen Ada html documentation.
+ build-fix for Ada shared libraries versus the varargs workaround.
+ add rpm and dpkg scripts for Ada95 and test directories, for test
builds.
+ update test/configure macros CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_XOPEN_SOURCE and
CF_X_ATHENA_LIBS.

package on Solaris and potentially not installed (report by Petr
Pavlu).
> fixes for Ada95 binding (Nicolas Boulenguez):
+ improve type-checking in Ada95 by eliminating a few warning-suppress
pragmas.
+ suppress unreferenced warnings.
+ make all dereferences in binding explicit.
+ regen Ada html documentation.

--disable-overwrite option was used, so that the subdirectory include
is listed first.
+ modify the make-tar.sh scripts to add a MANIFEST and NEWS file.
+ modify configure script to provide value for HTML_DIR in
Ada95/gen/Makefile.in, which depends on whether the Ada95 binding is
distributed separately (report by Nicolas Boulenguez).
+ modify configure script to add -g and/or -O3 to ADAFLAGS if the
CFLAGS for the build has these options.
+ amend change from 20070324, to not add 1 to the result of getmaxx
and getmaxy in the Ada binding (report by Nicolas Boulenguez for
thread in comp.lang.ada).
+ build-fix Ada95/samples for gnat 4.5

> fixes for Ada95 binding (Nicolas Boulenguez):
+ add item in Trace_Attribute_Set corresponding to TRACE_ATTRS.
+ add workaround for binding to set_field_type(), which uses varargs.
The original binding from 990220 relied on the prevalent
implementation of varargs which did not support or need va_copy().
+ add dependency on gen/Makefile.in needed for *-panels.ads
+ add Library_Options to library.gpr
+ add Languages to library.gpr, for gprbuild
+ correct list of sub-directories needed in Ada95 tree for building as
a separate package.
+ modify scripts in test-directory to improve builds as a separate
package.
+ correct parsing of relative tab-stops in tabs program (report by
Philip Ganchev).
+ adjust configure script so that "t" is not added to library suffix
when weak-symbols are used, allowing the pthread configuration to
more closely match the non-thread naming (report by Werner Fink).
+ modify configure check for tic program, used for fallbacks, to a
warning if not found. This makes it simpler to use additonal
scripts to bootstrap the fallbacks code using tic from the build
tree (report by Werner Fink).
+ fix several places in configure script using ${variable-value} form.
+ modify configure macro CF_LDFLAGS_STATIC to accommodate some loaders
which do not support selectively linking against static libraries
(report by John P. Hartmann)
+ fix an unescaped dash in man/tset.1 (report by Sven Joachim).
+ add a check in tic for missing set_tab if clear_all_tabs given.
+ improve use of symbolic links in makefiles by using "-f" option if
it is supported, to eliminate temporary removal of the target
(prompted by http://www.t2-project.org/packages/ncurses.html)
+ minor improvement to test/ncurses.c, reset color pairs in 'd' test
after exit from 'm' main-menu command.
+ improved ncu-indent, from mawk changes, allows more than one of
GCC_NORETURN, GCC_PRINTFLIKE and GCC_SCANFLIKE on a single line.
+ add hard-reset for rs2 to wsvt25 to help ensure that reset ends
* add hard-reset for rs2 to wsvt25 to help ensure that reset ends
the alternate character set (patch by Nicholas Marriott)
+ remove tar-copy.sh and related configure/Makefile chunks, since the
Ada95 binding is now installed using rules in Ada95/src.
+ continue integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95
+ add/use configure check to turn on project rules for Ada95/src.
+ revert the vfork change from 20100130, since it does not work.
+ continue integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95
+ old gnatmake (3.15) does not produce libraries using project-file;
work around by adding script to generate alternate makefile.
+ continue integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95
+ add configure --with-ada-sharedlib option, for the test_make rule.
+ move Ada95-related logic into aclocal.m4, since additional checks
will be needed to distinguish old/new implementations of gnat.
+ start integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95 tree
