+20211018
+       + check for screen size-change in scr_init() and scr_restore(), in case
+         a screen dump does not match the current screen dimensions (report by
+         Frank Tkalcevic).
+
+20211017
+       + amend change for pkg-config to account for "none" being returned in
+         the libdir-path result rather than "no" (report by Gabriele Balducci).
+
+20211016
+       + build-fix for pmake with libtool.
+       + improve make-tar.sh scripts, adding COPYING to tar file, and clean up
+         shellcheck warnings.
+       + add link for "reset6" manpage in test-package ncurses6-doc
+       + revise configure option --with-pkg-config-libdir, using the actual
+         search path from pkg-config or pkgconf using the output from --debug
+         (report by Pascal Pignard).
+       + freeze ABI in ".map" files.
+
+20211009
+       + implement "+m" option in tabs program.
+       + fill in some details for infoton -TD
+       + fix spelling/consistency in several descriptions -TD
+       + use vt420+lrmm in vt420 -TD
+       + modify save_tty_settings() to avoid opening /dev/tty for cases other
+         than reset/init, e.g., for clear.
+       + modify output of "toe -as" to show first description found rather
+         than the last.
+       + improve tic checks for number of parameters of smglp, smgrp, smgtp,
+         and smgbp (cf: 20020525).
+       + correct off-by-one comparison in last_char(), which did not allow
+         special case of ":" in a terminfo description field (cf: 20120407).
+       + remove check in tic that assumes that none or both parameterized and
+         non-parameterized margin-setting capabilities are present
+         (cf: 20101002).
+
 20211002
        + use return-value from vsnprintf to reallocate as needed to allow for
          buffers larger than the screen size (report by "_RuRo_").
