+20181124
+       + check --with-fallbacks option to ensure there is a value, and add
+         the fallback information to top-level Makefile summary.
+       + add some traces in initialization to show whether a fallback entry is
+         used.
+       + build-fix for test/movewindow with ncurses-examples on Solaris.
+       + add "-l" option to test/background, to dump screen contents in a form
+         that lets different curses implementations be compared.
+       + modify the initialization checks for mouse so that the xterm+sm+1006
+         block will work with terminal descriptions not mentioning xterm
+         (report by Tomas Janousek).
+
+20181117
+       + ignore the hex/b64 $TERMINFO in toe's listing.
+       + correct a status-check in _nc_read_tic_entry() so that if reading
+         a hex/b64 $TERMINFO, and the $TERM does not match, fall-through to
+         the compiled-in search list.
+
+20181110
+       + several workarounds to ensure proper C compiler used in parts of
+         Ada95 tree.
+       + update config.guess, config.sub from
+               http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git
+
+20181027

+       + add Smulx for tmux, vte-2018 -Nicholas Marriott
+
+20181020
+       + ignore $TERMINFO as a default value in configure script if it came
+         from the infocmp -Q option.
+       + allow value for --with-versioned-syms to be a relative pathname
+       + add a couple of broken-linker symbols to the list of versioned
+         symbols to help with link-time optimization versus weak symbols.
+       + apply shift/control/alt logic when decoding xterm's 1006 mode to
+         wheel-mouse events (Redhat #1610681).
+
+20181013
+       + amend change from 20180818, which undid a fix for the $INSTALL value
+         to make it an absolute path.
+
 20181006
        + improve a configure check to work with newer optimizers (report by
          Denis Pronin, Gentoo #606142).
