+ + 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

+ adacursesw-config to adacursesw5-config

+20150404
