+20090815
+ + correct use of terminfo capabilities for initializing soft-keys,
+ broken in 20090509 merging.
+ + modify wgetch() to ensure it checks SIGWINCH when it gets an error
+ in non-blocking mode (patch by Clemens Ladisch).
+ + use PATH_SEPARATOR symbol when substituting into run_tic.sh, to
+ help with builds on non-Unix platforms such as OS/2 EMX.
+ + modify scripting for misc/run_tic.sh to test configure script's
+ $cross_compiling variable directly rather than comparing host/build
+ compiler names (prompted by comment in GenToo #249363).
+ + fix configure script option --with-database, which was coded as an
+ enable-type switch.
+ + build-fixes for --srcdir (report by Frederic L W Meunier).
+
+20090808
+ + separate _nc_find_entry() and _nc_find_type_entry() from
+ implementation details of hash function.
+
+20090803
+ + add tabs.1 to man/man_db.renames
+ + modify lib_addch.c to compensate for removal of wide-character test
+ from unctrl() in 20090704 (Debian #539735).
+
20090801
+ improve discussion in INSTALL for use of system's tic/infocmp for
cross-compiling and building fallbacks.
