+20171209
+       + modify misc/ncurses-config.in to make output with --includedir
+         consistent with --cflags, i.e., when --disable-overwrite option was
+         configured the output should show the subdirectory where headers
+         are.
+       + modify MKlib_gen.sh to suppress macros when calling an "implemented"
+         function in link_test.c
+       + updated ftp-url used in test-packages, etc.
+       + modify order of -pie/-shared options in configure script in case
+         LDFLAGS uses "-pie", working around a defect or limitation in the GNU
+         linker (prompted by patch by Yogesh Prasad, forwarded by Jay Shah).
+       + add entry in man_db.renames for user_caps.5
