+ + expanded description of tgetstr's area pointer in manual page
+ (report by Todd M Lewis).
+ + in-progress changes to modify test-packages to use ncursesw6 rather
+ than ncursesw, with updated configure scripts.
+ + modify CF_NCURSES_CONFIG in Ada95- and test-configure scripts to
+ check for ".pc" files via pkg-config, but add a linkage check since
+ frequently pkg-config configurations are broken.

+ rpath option.
+ + add 'dim' capability to screen entry (report by Leonardo B Schenkel)
+ + add several key definitions to nsterm-bce to match preconfigured

+ + fix repeated "extra-suffix" in ncurses-config.in (cf: 20150418).
+ + improve term_variables manual page, adding section on the terminfo
+ long-name symbols which are defined in the term.h header.
