+20150606 pre-release
+       + make ABI 6 the default by updates to dist.mk and VERSION, with the
+         intention that the existing ABI 5 should build as before using the
+         "--with-abi=5" option.
+       + regenerate ada- and man-html documentation.
+       + minor fixes to color- and util-manpages.
+       + fix a regression in Ada95/gen/Makefile.in, to handle special case of
+         Cygwin, which uses the broken-linker feature.
+       + amend fix for CF_NCURSES_CONFIG used in test/configure to assume that
+         ncurses package scripts work when present for cross-compiling, as the
+         lessor of two evils (cf: 20150530).
+       + add check in configure script to disallow conflicting options
+         "--with-termlib" and "--enable-term-driver".
+       + move defaults for "--disable-lp64" and "--with-versioned-syms" into
+         CF_ABI_DEFAULTS macro.
+
 20150530
        + change private type for Event_Mask in Ada95 binding to work when
          mmask_t is set to 32-bits.
