+ add a configure-time check to pick a suitable value for
CC_SHARED_OPTS for Solaris (report by Dagobert Michelsen).

with misc/gen-pkgconfig.in which can be used to generate ".pc" files
for pkg-config (request by Jan Engelhardt).
+ use $includedir symbol in misc/ncurses-config.in, add --includedir
option.
+ change makefiles to use $ARFLAGS rather than $AR_OPTS, provide a
configure check to detect whether a "-" is needed before "ar"
options.

http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/config

--disable-ext-funcs is used.

+ add use_window() and use_screen() functions, to develop into support
for threaded library (incomplete).

creating symbolic links to two aliases created in 20070818 (report by
Rong-En Fan).

+ 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.

which was introduced to fix "make -j".

+ 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.

internal hash tables to short, and make those private symbols.
+ eliminate large fixed arrays from progs/infocmp.c
+ change winnstr() to stop at the end of the line (cf: 970315).

+ add test/test_getstr.c
+ add test/test_inwstr.c
+ add test/test_instr.c

+ 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
+ add "widec" row to _tracedump() output to help diagnose remaining
problems with multi-column characters.
+ partial fix for refresh of window on top of multi-column characters
which are partly overwritten (report by Sadrul H Chowdhury).
+ ignore A_CHARTEXT bits in vidattr() and vid_attr(), in case
multi-column extension bits are passed there.
+ add setlocale() call to demo_panels.c, needed for wide-characters.
+ add some output flags to _nc_trace_ttymode to help diagnose a bug
report by Larry Virden, i.e., ONLCR, OCRNL, ONOCR and ONLRET,
+ 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).
+ adapt mouse-handling code from menu library in form-library
(discussion with Clive Nicolson).
+ add a modification of test/dots.c, i.e., test/dots_mvcur.c to
illustrate how to use mvcur().
+ modify wide-character flavor of SetAttr() to preserve the
WidecExt() value stored in the .attr field, e.g., in case it
is overwritten by chgat (report by Aleksi Torhamo).
+ correct buffer-size for _nc_viswbuf2n() (report by Aleksi Torhamo).
+ build-fixes for Solaris 2.6 and 2.7 (patch by Peter O'Gorman).
+ modify Ada95 binding to build with --enable-reentrant by wrapping
global variables (bug: acs_map does not yet work).
+ modify Ada95 binding to use the new access-functions, allowing it
to build/run when NCURSES_OPAQUE is set.
+ add access-functions and macros to return properties of the WINDOW
structure, e.g., when NCURSES_OPAQUE is set.
+ improved install-sh's quoting.
+ use mkdirs.sh rather than mkinstalldirs, e.g., to use fixes from
other programs.
NCURSES_OPAQUE set, since we cannot pass a reference to
+ add test/inchs.c, test_inch_wide.c, to test win_wchnstr().
+ remove libdl from library list for termlib (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ fix configure.in to allow --without-progs --with-termlib (patch by
Miroslav Lichvar).
+ modify win_wchnstr() to ensure that only a base cell is returned
for each multi-column character (prompted by report by Wei Kong
regarding change in mvwin_wch() cf: 20041023).
+ modify fix_wchnstr() in form library to strip attributes (and color)
from the cchar_t array (field cells) read from a field's window.
Otherwise, when copying the field cells back to the window, the
associated color overrides the field's background color (report by
Ricardo Cantu).
+ improve tracing for form library, showing created forms, fields, etc.
+ ignore --enable-rpath configure option if --with-shared was omitted.
+ add _nc_leaks_tinfo(), _nc_free_tic(), _nc_free_tinfo() entrypoints
to allow leak-checking when both tic- and tinfo-libraries are built.
+ drop CF_CPP_VSCAN_FUNC macro from configure script, since C++ binding
no longer relies on it.
+ disallow combining configure script options --with-ticlib and
--enable-termcap (report by Rong-En Fan).
+ remove tack from ncurses tree.
+ add a break-statement in misc/shlib to ensure that it exits on the
_first_ matched directory (report by Paul Novak).
+ add tack/configure, which can be used to build tack outside the
ncurses build-tree.
+ add --with-ticlib option, to build/install the tic-support functions
in a separate library (suggestd by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ modify configure script to omit the tic (terminfo compiler) support
from ncurses library if --without-progs option is given.
+ modify install rule for ncurses5-config to do this via "install.libs"
+ modify shared-library rules to allow FreeBSD 3.x to use rpath.
+ update config.guess, config.sub
