+20101120
+       + improve checks in test/configure for X libraries, from xterm #267
+         changes.
+       + modify test/configure to allow it to use the build-tree's libraries
+         e.g., when using that to configure the test-programs without the
+         rpath feature (request by Sven Joachim).
+       + repurpose "gnome" terminfo entries as "vte", retaining "gnome" items
+         for compatibility, but generally deprecating those since the VTE
+         library is what actually defines the behavior of "gnome", etc.,
+         since 2003 -TD
+
 20101113
        + compiler warning fixes for test programs.
        + various build-fixes for test-programs with pdcurses.
