+20080607
+ + finish changes to wgetch(), making it switch as needed to the

+ + simplify mutex's, combining the window- and screen-mutex's.
+
+20080531
+ + modify wgetch() to use the screen which corresponds to its window

+ python-dev2 mailing list).
+
+20080329
+ + add null-pointer checks in set_term() and delscreen().
+ + move _nc_windows into _nc_globals, since windows can be pads, which
+ are not associated with a particular screen.
+ + change use_screen() to pass the SCREEN* parameter rather than
+ stdscr to the callback function.
+ + force libtool to use tag for 'CC' in case it does not detect this,
+ e.g., on aix when using CC=powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc

+
+20080301
+ + fixes from 20080223 resolved issue with mutexes; change to use

+
+20080216
+ + avoid using nanosleep() in threaded configuration since that often
+ is implemented to suspend the entire process.
+
+20080209
+ + update test programs to build/work with various UNIX curses for
+ comparisons. This was to reinvestigate statement in X/Open curses
+ that insnstr and winsnstr perform wrapping. None of the Unix-branded
+ implementations do this, as noted in manpage (cf: 20040228).
+
+20080203
+ + modify _nc_setupscreen() to set the legacy-coding value the same
+ for both narrow/wide models. It had been set only for wide model,
+ but is needed to make unctrl() work with locale in the narrow model.
+ + improve waddch() and winsch() handling of EILSEQ from mbrtowc() by
+ using unctrl() to display illegal bytes rather than trying to append
+ further bytes to make up a valid sequence (reported by Andrey A
+ Chernov).
+ + modify unctrl() to check codes in 128-255 range versus isprint().
+ If they are not printable, and locale was set, use a "M-" or "~"
+ sequence.
+
+20080126
+ + improve threading in test/worm.c (wrap refresh calls, and KEY_RESIZE
+ handling). Now it hangs in napms(), no matter whether nanosleep()
+ or poll() or select() are used on Linux.
+
+20080119
+ + fixes to build with --disable-ext-funcs

+ + fix allocation-size for command-line parsing in infocmp from 20070728
+ (report by Miroslav Lichvar)

+20071124
+ + modify configure option --with-hashed-db to accept a parameter which
+ is the install-prefix of a given Berkeley Database (prompted by
+ pierre4d2 comments).
+ + rewrite wrapper for wcrtomb(), making it work on Solaris. This is
+ used in the form library to determine the length of the buffer needed
+ by field_buffer (report by Alfred Fung).
+ + remove unneeded window-parameter from C++ binding for wresize (report
+ by Chris Lee).
+
+20071117
+ + modify the support for filesystems which do not support mixed-case to
+ generate 2-character (hexadecimal) codes for the lower-level of the
+ filesystem terminfo database (request by Michail Vidiassov).
+ + add configure option --enable-mixed-case, to allow overriding the
+ configure script's check if the filesystem supports mixed-case
+ filenames.
+ + add wresize() to C++ binding (request by Chris Lee).
+ + define NCURSES_EXT_FUNCS and NCURSES_EXT_COLORS in curses.h to make

+ + compile with FreeBSD "contemporary" TTY interface (patch by
+ Rong-En Fan).
+
+20071013
+ + modify makefile rules to allow clear, tput and tset to be built

+ that library.
+ + add/modify null-pointer checks in several functions for SP and/or

+ Lichvar).
+ + update/improve mlterm and rxvt terminfo entries, e.g., for
+ the modified cursor- and keypad-keys -TD
+
+20071006
+ + add code to curses.priv.h ifdef'd with NCURSES_CHAR_EQ, which
+ changes the CharEq() macro to an inline function to allow comparing
+ cchar_t struct's without comparing gaps in a possibly unpacked
+ memory layout (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
+
+20070929
+ + add new functions to lib_trace.c to setup mutex's for the _tracef()
+ calls within the ncurses library.

+ + modify configure script to skip Intel compiler in CF_C_INLINE.
+ + make _nc_info_hash_table and _nc_cap_hash_table private accessed via

+ + build-fixes for Solaris 2.6 and 2.7 (patch by Peter O'Gorman).
+
+20070526
+ + modify keyname() to use "^X" form only if meta() has been called, or

+ + improve warning message when checking if GPM is linked to curses
+ library by not warning if its use of "wgetch" is via a weak symbol.
+ + add loader options when building with static libraries to ensure that
+ an installed shared library for ncurses does not conflict. This is

+ in the configure script to an error.
+ + tweak error message in CF_WITH_LIBTOOL to distinguish other programs
+ such as Darwin's libtool program (report by Michail Vidiassov)
+ + modify edit_man.sh to allow for multiple substitutions per line.
+ + set locale in misc/ncurses-config.in since it uses a range
+ + change permissions libncurses++.a install (report by Michail
+ Vidiassov).
+ + corrected length of temporary buffer in wide-character version
+ of set_field_buffer() (related to report by Bryan Christ).
+
+20070311
+ + fix mk-1st.awk script install_shlib() function, broken in 20070224
+ changes for cygwin (report by Michail Vidiassov).
+
+20070310
+ + increase size of array in _nc_visbuf2n() to make "tic -v" work
+ properly in its similar_sgr() function (report/analysis by Peter
+ Santoro).
+ + add --enable-reentrant configure option for ongoing changes to
+ implement a reentrant version of ncurses:
+ + libraries are suffixed with "t"
+ + wrap several global variables (curscr, newscr, stdscr, ttytype,
+ COLORS, COLOR_PAIRS, COLS, ESCDELAY, LINES and TABSIZE) as
+ functions returning values stored in SCREEN or cur_term.
+ + move some initialization (LINES, COLS) from lib_setup.c,
+ i.e., setupterm() to _nc_setupscreen(), i.e., newterm().
+
+20070303
+ + regenerated html documentation.
+ + add NCURSES_OPAQUE symbol to curses.h, will use to make structs
+ opaque in selected configurations.
+ + move the chunk in lib_acs.c which resets acs capabilities when
+ running on a terminal whose locale interferes with those into
+ _nc_setupscreen(), so the libtinfo/libtinfow files can be made
+ identical (requested by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ + do not use configure variable SHLIB_LIBS for building libraries
+ outside the ncurses directory, since that symbol is customized
+ only for that directory, and using it introduces an unneeded
+ dependency on libdl (requested by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ + modify mk-1st.awk so the generated makefile rules for linking or
+ installing shared libraries do not first remove the library, in
+ case it is in use, e.g., libncurses.so by /bin/sh (report by Jeff
+ Chua).
+ + revised section "Using NCURSES under XTERM" in ncurses-intro.html
+ (prompted by newsgroup comment by Nick Guenther).
