+20090906
+       + fix typo s/is_timeout/is_notimeout/ which made "man is_notimeout" not
+         work.
+       + add null-pointer checks to other opaque-functions.
+       + add is_pad() and is_subwin() functions for opaque access to WINDOW
+         (discussion with Mark Dickinson).
+       + correct merge to lib_newterm.c, which broke when sp-funcs was
+         enabled.
+
+20090905
+       + build-fix for building outside source-tree (report by Sven Joachim).
+       + fix Debian lintian warning for man/tabs.1 by making section number
+         agree with file-suffix (report by Sven Joachim).
+       + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+
+20090829
+       + workaround for bug in g++ 4.1-4.4 warnings for wattrset() macro on
+         amd64 (Debian #542031).
+       + fix typo in curs_mouse.3x (Debian #429198).
+
+20090822
+       + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+
+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
