+ add substitution for $RPATH_LIST to misc/ncurses-config.in
+ improve performance of tic with hashed-database by caching the
database connection, using atexit() to cleanup.
+ modify treatment of 2-character aliases at the beginning of termcap
entries so they are not counted in use-resolution, since these are
guaranteed to be unique. Also ignore these aliases when reporting
the primary name of the entry (cf: 20040501)
+ double-check gn (generic) flag in terminal descriptions to
accommodate old/buggy termcap databases which misused that feature.
+ minor fixes to _nc_tgetent(), ensure buffer is initialized even on
error-return.
+ 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).
+ quiet some pedantic gcc warnings.
+ modify _nc_wgetch() to check for a -1 in the fifo, e.g., after a
SIGWINCH, and discard that value, to avoid confusing application
(patch by Eygene Ryabinkin, FreeBSD bin/136223).
+ build-fix for building outside source-tree (report by Sven Joachim).
+ fix Debian lintian warning for man/tabs.1 by making section number
agree with file-suffix (report by Sven Joachim).
+ continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+ improve performance of tigetstr, etc., by using hashing code from tic.
+ minor fixes for memory-leak checking.
+ add test/demo_terminfo, for comparison with demo_termcap
+ add configure option --enable-weak-symbols to turn on new feature.
+ add configure-check for availability of weak symbols.
+ modify linkage with pthread library to use weak symbols so that
applications not linked to that library will not use the mutexes,
etc. This relies on gcc, and may be platform-specific (patch by Dr
Werner Fink).
+ add note to INSTALL to document limitation of renaming of tic library
using the --with-ticlib configure option (report by Dr Werner Fink).
+ document (in manpage) why tputs does not detect I/O errors (prompted
by comments by Samuel Thibault).
+ fix remaining warnings from Klocwork report.
+ correct some ifdef's needed for the broken-linker configuration.
+ make debugging library's $BAUDRATE feature work for termcap
interface.
+ make $NCURSES_NO_PADDING feature work for termcap interface (prompted
by comment on FreeBSD mailing list).
+ add screen.mlterm terminfo entry -TD
+ improve mlterm and mlterm+pcfkeys terminfo entries -TD
+ 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).
+ improve fix for FreeBSD gnu/98975, to allow for null pointer passed
to tgetent() (report by Rong-en Fan).
+ update tack/HISTORY and tack/README to tell how to build it after
it is removed from the ncurses tree.
+ fix configure check for libtool's version to trim blank lines
(report by sci-fi@hush.ai).
+ review/eliminate other original-file artifacts in cursesw.cc, making
its license consistent with ncurses.
+ use ncurses vw_scanw() rather than reading into a fixed buffer in
the c++ binding for scanw() methods.
+ eliminate fixed-buffer vsprintf() calls in c++ binding.
