+ 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).
+ avoid a blank line in output from tabs program by ending it with
a carriage return as done in FreeBSD (patch by James Clarke).
+ build-fix for the "--enable-ext-putwin" feature when not using
wide characters (report by Werner Fink).
+ modify autoconf macros to use scripting improvement from xterm.
+ add -brtl option to compiler options on AIX 5-7, needed to link
with the shared libraries.
+ add --with-extra-suffix option to help with installing nonconflicting
ncurses6 packages, e.g., avoiding header- and library-conflicts.
NOTE: as a side-effect, this renames
adacurses-config to adacurses5-config and
adacursesw-config to adacursesw5-config
+ modify debian/rules test package to suffix programs with "6".
+ clarify in curs_inopts.3x that window-specific settings do not
inherit into new windows.
+ improve description of start_color() in the manual.
+ modify several files in ncurses- and progs-directories to allow
const data used in internal tables to be put by the linker into the
readonly text segment.
+ minor changes to some configure macros to make them more reusable.
+ fixes for tabs program (prompted by report by Nick Andrik):
+ corrected logic in command-line parsing of -a and -c predefined
tab-lists options.
+ allow "-0" and "-8" options to be combined with others, e.g.,"-0d".
+ make warning messages more consistent with the other utilities by
not printing the full pathname of the program.
+ add -V option for consistency with other utilities.
+ fix off-by-one in columns for tabs program when processing an option
such as "-5" (patch by Nick Andrik).
> fixes based on Coverity report:
+ add missing braces around FreeAndNull in two places.
+ various fixes in test/ncurses.c
+ improve limit-checks in tinfo/make_hash.c, tinfo/read_entry.c
+ correct malloc size in progs/infocmp.c
+ guard against negative array indices in test/knight.c
+ fix off-by-one limit check in test/color_name.h
+ add null-pointer check in progs/tabs.c, test/bs.c, test/demo_forms.c,
test/inchs.c
+ fix memory-leak in tinfo/lib_setup.c, progs/toe.c,
test/clip_printw.c, test/demo_menus.c
+ delete unused windows in test/chgat.c, test/clip_printw.c,
test/insdelln.c, test/newdemo.c on error-return.
+ 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.
+ modify configure script to allow creating dll's for MinGW when
cross-compiling.
+ add --enable-string-hacks option to control whether strlcat and
strlcpy may be used. The same issue applies to OpenBSD's warnings
about snprintf, noting that this function is weakly standardized.
+ add configure checks for strlcat, strlcpy and snprintf, to help
reduce bogus warnings with OpenBSD builds.
+ build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 to supply consistent intptr_t declaration
(cf:20111231)
+ update config.guess, config.sub
+ compiler-warning fixes in panel and progs.
+ modify CF_PKG_CONFIG macro, from changes to tin -TD
+ modify CF_CURSES_FUNCS configure macro, used in test directory
configure script:
+ work around (non-optimizer) bug in gcc 4.2.1 which caused
test-expression to be omitted from executable.
+ force the linker to see a link-time expression of a symbol, to
help work around weak-symbol issues.
+ correct parsing of relative tab-stops in tabs program (report by
Philip Ganchev).
+ adjust configure script so that "t" is not added to library suffix
when weak-symbols are used, allowing the pthread configuration to
more closely match the non-thread naming (report by Werner Fink).
+ modify configure check for tic program, used for fallbacks, to a
warning if not found. This makes it simpler to use additonal
scripts to bootstrap the fallbacks code using tic from the build
tree (report by Werner Fink).
+ fix several places in configure script using ${variable-value} form.
+ modify configure macro CF_LDFLAGS_STATIC to accommodate some loaders
which do not support selectively linking against static libraries
(report by John P. Hartmann)
+ fix an unescaped dash in man/tset.1 (report by Sven Joachim).
+ correct limit-check in wredrawln, accounting for begy/begx values
(patch by David Benjamin).
+ fix most compiler warnings from clang.
+ amend build-fix for OpenSolaris, to ensure that a system header is
included in curses.h before testing feature symbols, since they
may be defined by that route.
+ supply a null-terminator to buffer in _nc_viswibuf().
+ fix a sign-extension bug in unget_wch() (report by Mike Gran).
+ minor fixes to error-returns in default function for tputs, as well
as in lib_screen.c
+ change _nc_has_mouse() to has_mouse(), reflect its use in C++ and
Ada95 (patch by Juergen Pfeifer).
+ document in TO-DO an issue with Cygwin's package for GNAT (report
by Mike Dennison).
+ improve error-checking of command-line options in "tabs" program.
+ change several terminfo entries to make consistent use of ANSI
clear-all-tabs -TD
+ add "tabs" program (prompted by Debian #502260).
+ add configure --without-manpages option (request by Mike Frysinger).
