+ add special case to _nc_infotocap() to recognize the setaf/setab
strings from xterm+256color and xterm+88color, and provide a reduced
version which works with termcap.
+ remove obsolete emacs "Local Variables" section from documentation
(request by Sven Joachim).
+ update doc/html/index.html to include NCURSES-Programming-HOWTO.html
(report by Sven Joachim).
+ modify initialization check for win32con driver to eliminate need for
special case for TERM "unknown", using terminal database if available
(prompted by discussion with Roumen Petrov).
+ for MinGW port, ensure that terminal driver is setup if tgetent()
is called (patch by Roumen Petrov).
+ document tabs "-0" and "-8" options in manpage.
+ fix Debian "lintian" issues with manpages reported in
http://lintian.debian.org/full/csmall@debian.org.html#ncurses
+ fix typo s/is_timeout/is_notimeout/ which made "man is_notimeout" not
work.
+ add null-pointer checks to other opaque-functions.
+ add is_pad() and is_subwin() functions for opaque access to WINDOW
(discussion with Mark Dickinson).
+ correct merge to lib_newterm.c, which broke when sp-funcs was
enabled.
+ add use_window() and use_screen() functions, to develop into support
for threaded library (incomplete).
+ fix typos in man/curs_opaque.3x which kept the install script from
creating symbolic links to two aliases created in 20070818 (report by
Rong-En Fan).
+ 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).
+ add 'O' (wide-character panel test) in ncurses.c to demonstrate a
problem reported by Sadrul H Chowdhury with repainting parts of
a fullwidth cell.
+ modify slk_init() so that if there are preceding calls to
ripoffline(), those affect the available lines for soft-keys (adapted
from patch by Clive Nicolson).
+ document some portability issues in man/curs_getyx.3x
