Thomas E. Dickey 027d0c57c4 ncurses 5.9 - patch 20150516
+ amend change to ".pc" files to only use the extra loader flags which
  may have rpath options (report by Sven Joachim, cf: 20150502).
+ change versioning for dpkg's in test-packages for Ada95 and
  ncurses-examples for consistency with Debian, to work with package
  updates.
+ regenerate html manpages.
+ clarify handling of carriage return in waddch manual page; it was
  discussed only in the portability section (prompted by comment on
  Stack Overflow forum):

<H2><a name="h2-DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</a></H2><PRE>
These routines insert the character <EM>ch</EM> before the charac-
ter under the cursor. All characters to the right of the
cursor are moved one space to the right, with the possi-
bility of the rightmost character on the line being lost.
The insertion operation does not change the cursor posi-
tion.
</PRE>
<H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
All routines that return an integer return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon fail-
ure and OK (SVr4 specifies only "an integer value other
than <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>") upon successful completion, unless otherwise
noted in the preceding routine descriptions.
Functions with a "mv" prefix first perform a cursor move-
ment using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>, and return an error if the position is
outside the window, or if the window pointer is null.
</PRE>
<H2><a name="h2-NOTES">NOTES</a></H2><PRE>
These routines do not necessarily imply use of a hardware
insert character feature.
Note that <STRONG>insch</STRONG>, <STRONG>mvinsch</STRONG>, and <STRONG>mvwinsch</STRONG> may be macros.
</PRE>
<H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard,
Issue 4.
