+       + build-fixes for OS/2 EMX.
+       + modify form library to accept control characters such as newline
+         in set_field_buffer(), which is compatible with Solaris (report by
+         Nit Khair).
+       + modify configure script to assume --without-hashed-db when
+         --disable-database is used.
+       + add "-e" option in ncurses/Makefile.in when generating source-files
+         to force earlier exit if the build environment fails unexpectedly
+         (prompted by patch by Adrian Bunk).
+       + change configure script to use CF_UTF8_LIB, improved variant of
+         CF_LIBUTF8.
