+20100619
+       + continue integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95
+         + add configure --with-ada-sharedlib option, for the test_make rule.
+         + move Ada95-related logic into aclocal.m4, since additional checks
+           will be needed to distinguish old/new implementations of gnat.
+
+20100612
+       + start integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95 tree
+         + add test_make / test_clean / test_install rules in Ada95/src
+         + change install-path for adainclude directory to /usr/share/ada (was
+           /usr/lib/ada).
+       + update Ada95/configure.
+       + add mlterm+256color entry, for mlterm 3.0.0 -TD
+       + modify test/configure to use macros to ensure consistent order
+         of updating LIBS variable.
+
+20100605
+       + change search order of options for Solaris in CF_SHARED_OPTS, to
+         work with 64-bit compiles.
+       + correct quoting of assignment in CF_SHARED_OPTS case for aix
+         (cf: 20081227)
+
+20100529
+       + regenerated html documentation.
+       + modify test/configure to support pkg-config for checking X libraries
+         used by PDCurses.
+       + add/use configure macro CF_ADD_LIB to force consistency of
+         assignments to $LIBS, etc.
+       + fix configure script for combining --with-pthread
+         and --enable-weak-symbols options.
+
+20100522
+       + correct cross-compiling configure check for CF_MKSTEMP macro, by
+         adding a check cache variable set by AC_CHECK_FUNC (report by
+         Pierre Labastie).
+       + simplify include-dependencies of make_hash and make_keys, to reduce
+         the need for setting BUILD_CPPFLAGS in cross-compiling when the
+         build- and target-machines differ.
+       + repair broken-linker configuration by restoring a definition of SP
+         variable to curses.priv.h, and adjusting for cases where sp-funcs
+         are used.
+       + improve configure macro CF_AR_FLAGS, allowing ARFLAGS environment
+         variable to override (prompted by report by Pablo Cazallas).
+
 20100515
        + add configure option --enable-pthreads-eintr to control whether the
          new EINTR feature is enabled.
