+ improve checks in test/configure for X libraries, from xterm #267
changes.
+ modify test/configure to allow it to use the build-tree's libraries
e.g., when using that to configure the test-programs without the
rpath feature (request by Sven Joachim).
+ repurpose "gnome" terminfo entries as "vte", retaining "gnome" items
for compatibility, but generally deprecating those since the VTE
library is what actually defines the behavior of "gnome", etc.,
since 2003 -TD
+ fix build for --with-dmalloc by workaround for redefinition of
strndup between string.h and dmalloc.h
+ fix build for --disable-sigwinch
+ add environment variable NCURSES_GPM_TERMS to allow override to use
GPM on terminals other than "linux", etc.
+ disable GPM mouse support when $TERM does not happen to contain
"linux", since Gpm_Open() no longer limits its assertion to terminals
that it might handle, e.g., within "screen" in xterm.
+ reset mouse file-descriptor when unloading GPM library (report by
Miroslav Lichvar).
+ fix build for --disable-leaks --enable-widec --with-termlib
> patch by Juergen Pfeifer:
+ use improved initialization for soft-label keys in Ada95 sample code.
+ discard internal symbol _nc_slk_format (unused since 20080112).
+ move call of slk_paint_info() from _nc_slk_initialize() to
slk_intern_refresh(), improving initialization.
+ 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 _nc_leaks_tic() to separate leak-checking of tic library from
term/ncurses libraries, and thereby eliminate a library dependency.
+ fix test/mk-test.awk to ignore blank lines.
+ correct paths in include/headers, for --srcdir (patch by Miroslav
Lichvar).
in a separate library (suggested by Miroslav Lichvar).
