+ fix a few problems reported by Coverity.
+ fix comparison against "/usr/include" in misc/gen-pkgconfig.in
(report by Daiki Ueno, Debian #790548, cf: 20141213).
+ modify the configure script to allow different default values
for ABI 5 versus ABI 6.
+ add wgetch-events to test-packages.
+ add a note on how to build ncurses-examples to test/README.
+ fix a memory leak in delscreen (report by Daniel Kahn Gillmor,
Debian #783486) -TD
+ remove unnecessary ';' from E3 capabilities -TD
+ add tmux entry, derived from screen (patch by Nicholas Marriott).
+ split-out recent change to nsterm-bce as nsterm-build326, and add
nsterm-build342 to reflect changes with successive releases of OSX
(discussion with Leonardo B Schenkel)
+ add xon, ich1, il1 to ibm3161 (patch by Stephen Powell, Debian
#783806)
+ add sample "magic" file, to document ext-putwin.
+ modify gen-pkgconfig.in to add explicit -ltinfo, etc., to the
generated ".pc" file when ld option "--as-needed" is used, or when
ncurses and tinfo are installed without using rpath (prompted by
discussion with Sylvain Bertrand).
+ modify test-package for ncurses6 to omit rpath feature when installed
in /usr.
+ add OSX's "*.dSYM" to clean-rules in makefiles.
+ make extra-suffix work for OSX configuration, e.g., for shared
libraries.
+ modify Ada95/configure script to work with pkg-config
+ move test-package for ncurses6 to /usr, since filename-conflicts have
been eliminated.
+ corrected build rules for Ada95/gen/generate; it does not depend on
the ncurses library aside from headers.
+ reviewed man pages, fixed a few other spelling errors.
+ fix a typo in curs_util.3x (Sven Joachim).
+ use extra-suffix in some overlooked shared library dependencies
found by 20150425 changes for test-packages.
+ update config.guess, config.sub from
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git
+ modify ifdef in read_entry.c to handle the case where
NCURSES_USE_DATABASE is not defined (patch by Xin Li).
+ add cast in form_driver_w() to fix ARM build (patch by Xin Li).
+ add logic to win_driver.c to save/restore screen contents when not
allocating a console-buffer (cf: 20140215).
+ modify test/testcurs.c to work with mouse for ncurses as it does for
pdcurses.
+ modify test/knight.c to work with mouse for pdcurses as it does for
ncurses.
+ modify internal recursion in wgetch() which handles cooked mode to
check if the call to wgetnstr() returned an error. This can happen
when both nocbreak() and nodelay() are set, for instance (report by
Nils Christopher Brause) (cf: 960418).
+ fixes for issues found by Coverity:
+ add a check for valid position in ClearToEOS()
+ fix in lib_twait.c when --enable-wgetch-events is used, pointer
use after free.
+ improve a limit-check in make_hash.c
+ fix a memory leak in hashed_db.c
+ improve malloc/realloc checking (prompted by discussion in Redhat
#866989).
+ add ncurses test-program as "ncurses6" to the rpm- and dpkg-scripts.
+ updated configure macros CF_GCC_VERSION and CF_WITH_PATHLIST. The
first corrects pattern used for Mac OS X's customization of gcc.
+ correct CF_ETIP_DEFINES configure macro, making it exit properly on
the first success (patch by Pierre Labastie).
+ improve configure macro CF_MKSTEMP by moving existence-check for
mkstemp out of the AC_TRY_RUN, to help with cross-compiles.
+ improve configure macro CF_FUNC_POLL from luit changes to detect
broken implementations, e.g., with Mac OS X.
+ add configure option --with-tparm-arg
+ build-fix for MinGW cross-compiling, so that make_hash does not
depend on TTY definition (cf: 20111008).
+ 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_tparm.h, adding guards against repeated inclusion, and
allowing TPARM_ARG to be overridden.
+ fix some strict compiler warnings in ncurses library.
+ fixes to make Ada95 demo_panels() example work.
+ modify Ada95 'rain' test program to accept keyboard commands like the
C-version.
+ modify BeOS-specific ifdef's to build on Haiku (patch by Scott
Mccreary).
+ add configure-check to see if the std namespace is legal for cerr
and endl, to fix a build issue with Tru64.
+ consistently use NCURSES_BOOL in lib_gen.c
+ filter #line's from lib_gen.c
+ change delimiter in MKlib_gen.sh from '%' to '@', to avoid
substitution by IBM xlc to '#' as part of its extensions to digraphs.
+ update config.guess, config.sub from
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/config
(caveat - its maintainer removed support for older Linux systems).
+ modify _nc_keypad() to make it switch temporarily as needed to the
screen which must be updated.
+ wrap cur_term variable to help make _nc_keymap() thread-safe, and
always set the screen's copy of this variable in set_curterm().
+ restore curs_set() state after endwin()/refresh() (report/patch
Miroslav Lichvar)
+ modify screen.* terminfo entries using new screen+fkeys to fix
overridden keys in screen.rxvt (Debian #478094) -TD
+ modify internal interfaces to reduce wgetch()'s dependency on the
global SP.
+ simplify some loops with macros each_screen(), each_window() and
each_ripoff().
+ continue modifying test/ditto.c toward making it demonstrate
multithreaded use_screen(), using fifos to pass data between screens.
+ fix typo in form.3x (report by Mike Gran).
+ amend treatment of infocmp "-r" option to retain the 1023-byte limit
unless "-T" is given (cf: 981017).
+ modify comp_captab.c generation to use big-strings.
+ make _nc_capalias_table and _nc_infoalias_table private accessed via
_nc_get_alias_table() since the tables are used only within the tic
library.
+ modify configure script to skip Intel compiler in CF_C_INLINE.
+ make _nc_info_hash_table and _nc_cap_hash_table private accessed via
_nc_get_hash_table() since the tables are used only within the tic
library.
+ 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
+ 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.
