+20170722
+       + improve test-packages for ncurses-examples and AdaCurses for lintian
+       + modify logic for endwin-state to be able to detect the case where
+         the screen was never initialized, using that to trigger a flush of
+         ncurses' buffer for mvcur, e.g., in test/dots_mvcur.c for the
+         term-driver configuration.
+       + add dependency upon ncurses_cfg.h to a few other internal header
+         files to allow each to be compiled separately.
+       + add dependency upon ncurses_cfg.h to tic's header-files; any program
+         using tic-library will have to supply this file.  Legacy tack
+         versions supply this file; ongoing tack development has dropped the
+         dependency upon tic-library and new releases will not be affected.

        + modify command-line parameters for "convert" used in picsmap to work
          with ImageMagick 6.8 and newer.
