+20150110
+       + add a step to generating ".map" files, to declare any remaining
+         symbols beginning with "_" as local, at the last version node.
+       + improve configure checks for pkg-config, addressing a variant found
+         with FreeBSD ports.
+       + modify win_driver.c to provide characters for special keys, like
+         ansi.sys, when keypad mode is off, rather than returning nothing at
+         all (discussion with Eli Zaretskii).
+       + add "broken_linker" and "hashed-db" configure options to combinations
+         use for generating the ".map" and ".sym" files.
+       + avoid using "ld" directly when creating shared library, to simplify
+         cross-compiles.  Also drop "-Bsharable" option from shared-library
+         rules for FreeBSD and DragonFly (FreeBSD #196592).
+       + fix a memory leak in form library Free_RegularExpression_Type()
+         (report by Pavel Balaev).

        + change map files to make _nc_freeall a global, since it may be used
