Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions;
it is not possible to add this information.
+20121222
+ + add *.dSYM directories to clean-rule in ncurses directory makefile,
+ for Mac OS builds.
+ + add a configure check for gcc option -no-cpp-precomp, which is not
+ available in all Mac OS X configurations (report by Andras Salamon,
+ cf: 20011208).
+ + improve 20021221 workaround for broken acs, handling a case where
+ that ACS_xxx character is not in the acsc string but there is a known
+ wide-character which can be used.
+
+20121215
+ + fix several warnings from clang 3.1 --analyze, includes correcting
+ a null-pointer check in _nc_mvcur_resume.
+ + correct display of double-width characters with MinGW port (report
+ by Erwin Waterlander).
+ + replace MinGW's wcrtomb(), fixing a problem with _nc_viscbuf
+ > fixes based on Coverity report:
+ + correct coloring in test/bs.c
+ + correct check for 8-bit value in _nc_insert_ch().
+ + remove dead code in progs/tset.c, test/linedata.h
+ + add null-pointer checks in lib_tracemse.c, panel.priv.h, and some
+ test-programs.
+
+20121208
+ + modify test/knight.c to show the number of choices possible for
+ each position in automove option, e.g., to allow user to follow
+ Warnsdorff's rule to solve the puzzle.
+ + modify test/hanoi.c to show the minimum number of moves possible for
+ the given number of tiles (prompted by patch by Lucas Gioia).
+ > fixes based on Coverity report:
+ + remove a few redundant checks.
+ + correct logic in test/bs.c, when randomly placing a specific type of
+ ship.
+ + check return value from remove/unlink in tic.
+ + check return value from sscanf in test/ncurses.c
+ + fix a null dereference in c++/cursesw.cc
+ + fix two instances of uninitialized variables when configuring for the
+ terminal driver.
+ + correct scope of variable used in SetSafeOutcWrapper macro.
+ + set umask when calling mkstemp in tic.
+ + initialize wbkgrndset() temporary variable when extended-colors are
+ used.
+
+20121201
+ + also replace MinGW's wctomb(), fixing a problem with setcchar().
+ + modify test/view.c to load UTF-8 when built with MinGW by using
+ regular win32 API because the MinGW functions mblen() and mbtowc()
+ do not work.
+
+20121124
+ + correct order of color initialization versus display in some of the
+ test-programs, e.g., test_addstr.c
+ > fixes based on Coverity report:
+ + delete windows on exit from some of the test-programs.

+ > fixes based on Coverity report:
+ + add missing braces around FreeAndNull in two places.
+ + various fixes in test/ncurses.c
+ + improve limit-checks in tinfo/make_hash.c, tinfo/read_entry.c
+ + correct malloc size in progs/infocmp.c
+ + guard against negative array indices in test/knight.c
+ + fix off-by-one limit check in test/color_name.h
+ + add null-pointer check in progs/tabs.c, test/bs.c, test/demo_forms.c,
+ test/inchs.c
+ + fix memory-leak in tinfo/lib_setup.c, progs/toe.c,
+ test/clip_printw.c, test/demo_menus.c
+ + delete unused windows in test/chgat.c, test/clip_printw.c,
