+20120622
+       + add -d, -e and -q options to test/demo_terminfo and test/demo_termcap
+       + fix caching of environment variables in database-iterator (patch by
+         Philippe Troin, Redhat #831366).
+
+20120616
+       + add configure check to distinguish clang from gcc to eliminate
+         warnings about unused command-line parameters when compiler warnings
+         are enabled.
+       + improve behavior when updating terminfo entries which are hardlinked
+         by allowing for the possibility that an alias has been repurposed to
+         a new primary name.
+       + fix some strict compiler warnings based on package scripts.
+       + further fixes for configure check for working poll (Debian #676461).
+
+20120608
+       + fix an uninitialized variable in -c/-n logic for infocmp changes
+         (cf: 20120526).
+       + corrected fix for building c++ binding with clang 3.0 (report/patch
+         by Richard Yao, Gentoo #417613, cf: 20110409)
+       + correct configure check for working poll, fixing the case where stdin
+         is redirected, e.g., in rpm/dpkg builds (Debian #676461).
+       + add rpm- and dpkg-scripts, to test those build-environments.
+         The resulting packages are used only for testing.
+
+20120602

+       + add dl to simpleterm -TD
+       + add consistency-checks in tic for insert-line vs delete-line
+         controls, and insert/delete-char keys
+       + correct no-leaks logic in infocmp when doing comparisons, fixing
+         duplicate free of entries given via the command-line, and freeing
+         entries loaded from the last-but-one of files specified on the
+         command-line.
+       + add kdch1 to wsvt25 entry from NetBSD CVS (reported by David Lord,
+         analysis by Martin Husemann).
+       + add cnorm/civis to wsvt25 entry from NetBSD CVS (report/analysis by
+         Onno van der Linden).

        + extend -c and -n options of infocmp to allow comparing more than two
