Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions;
it is not possible to add this information.
+20200926
+ + correct configure-check for gnurx library.
+ + regenerate llib-* files.
+ + modify tracemunch and the panel library to show readable traces for
+ panel- and user-pointers.
+
+20200919
+ + update mlterm3 for 3.9.0 (report by Premysl Eric Janouch) -TD
+
+20200918
+ + corrected condition for appending curses.events to the generated
+ curses.h (report by Sven Joachim, Debian #970545).
+
+20200912
+ + add configure-check for systre/tre with mingw configuration, to get
+ the library-dependencies as seen in msys2 configuration for mingw64.
+ + build-fixes for the win32-driver configuration.
+ + use more defensive binary mode setting for Win32 (Juergen Pfeifer).
+
+20200907
+ + fix regression in setupterm validating non-empty $TERM (report by
+ Soren Tempel).
+
+20200906
+ + merge/adapt in-progress work by Juergen Pfeifer for new version of
+ win32-driver.
+ + correct description of vt330/vt340 (Ross Combs).
+
+20200831
+ + build-fix for awk-scripts modified for win32-driver (report by Werner
+ Fink).
+
+20200829
+ + remove a redundant NCURSES_EXPORT as a build-fix for "Maarten
+ Anonymous".
+ + merge/adapt in-progress work by Juergen Pfeifer for new version of
+ win32-driver.
+ + modify configure script, moving gcc -Werror options to EXTRA_CFLAGS
+ to avoid breaking configure-checks (adapted from ongoing work on
+ mawk and lynx).
+ > errata for terminfo.src (report by Florian Weimer):
+ + correct icl6404 csr
+ + correct ti916 cup
+ + improve ndr9500
+
+20200822
+ + improve version-number extraction in MKlib_gen.sh
+ + make the test-package for manpages installable by adjusting the
+ man_db.renames file.
+ + correct an off-by-one loop-limit in convert_strings function
+ (report by Yue Tai).
+ + add CF_SHARED_OPTS cases for HPE NonStop systems (Randall S Becker).
+ + modify CF_SHARED_OPTS case for NetBSD to use the same "-shared"
+ option for the non-rpath case as for the rpath case, to allow gcc to
+ provide suitable runtime initialization (report by Rajeev V Pillai).
+
+20200817
+ + reduce build-warnings by excluding ncurses-internals from deprecation
+ warnings.
+ + mark wgetch-events feature as deprecated.
+ + add definition for $(LIBS) to ncurses/Makefile.in, to simplify builds
+ using the string-hacks option.
+ + prevent KEY_EVENT from appearing in curses.h unless the configure
+ option --enable-wgetch-events is used (report by Werner Fink).
+
+20200816
+ + amend tic/infocmp check to allow for the respective tool's absence
+ (report by Steve Wills, cf: 20200808).
+ + improved some of the build-scripts with shellcheck
+ + filter out -MT/-MD/-MTd/-MDd options in script for Visual Studio C++
+ (discussion with "Maarten Anonymous").
+
+20200808
+ + improve discussion of the system's tic utility when used as part
+ of cross-compiling (discussion with Keith Marshall).
+ + modify configuration checks for build-time tic/infocmp to use
+ AC_CHECK_TOOL. That can still be overridden by --with-tic-path and
+ --with-infocmp-path when fallbacks are used, but even if not using
+ fallbacks, the improved check may help with cross-compiling
+ (discussion with Keith Marshall).
+ + other build-fixes for Ada95 with MinGW.
+ + modify Ada95 source-generation utility to write to a file given as
+ parameter rather than to the standard output, allowing builds with
+ MinGW.
+
20200801
+ remove remaining parts of checks for ISC Unix (cf: 20121006).
+ add user32.lib to LDFLAGS for Visual Studio C++ configuration
