+20161231
+	+ fix errata for ncurses-howto (report by Damien Ruscoe).
+	+ fix a few places in configure/build scripts where DESTDIR and rpath
+	  were combined (report by Thomas Klausner).
+	+ merge current st description (report by Harry Gindi) -TD
+	+ modify flash capability for linux and wyse entries to put the delay
+	  between the reverse/normal escapes rather than after -TD
+	+ modify program tabs to pass the actual tty file descriptor to
+	  setupterm rather than the standard output, making padding work
+	  consistently.
+	+ explain in clear's manual page that it writes to stdout.
+	+ add special case for verbose debugging traces of command-line
+	  utilities which write to stderr (cf: 20161126).
+	+ remove a trace with literal escapes from skip_DECSCNM(), added in
+	  20161203.
+	+ update config.guess, config.sub from
+		http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git
+
+20161224
+	+ correct parmeters for copywin call in _nc_Synchronize_Attributes()
+	  (patch by Leon Winter).
+	+ improve color-handling section in terminfo manual page (prompted by
+	  patch by Mihail Konev).
+	+ modify programs clear, tput and tset to pass the actual tty file
+	  descriptor to setupterm rather than the standard output, making
+	  padding work.
+
+20161217
+	+ add tput-colorcube demo script.
+	+ add -r and -s options to tput-initc demo, to match usage in xterm.
+	+ flush the standard output in _nc_flush for the case where SP is zero,
+	  e.g., when called via putp.  This fixes a scenario where "tput flash"
+	  did not work after changes in 20130112.
+
+20161210
+	+ add configure script option --disable-wattr-macros for use in cases
+	  where one wants to use the same headers for ncurses5/ncurses6
+	  development, by suppressing the wattr* macros which differ due to
+	  the introduction of extended colors (prompted by comments in
+	  Debian #230990, Redhat #1270534).
+	+ add test/tput-initc to demonstrate tput used to initialize palette
+	  from a data file.
+	+ modify test/xterm*.dat to use the newer color4/color12 values.
+
+20161203
+	+ improve discussion of field validation in form_driver.3x manual page.
+	+ update curs_trace.3x manual page.
+
+20161126
+	+ modify linux-16color to not mask dim, standout or reverse with the
+	  ncv capability -TD
+	+ add 0.1sec mandatory delay to flash capabilities using the VT100
+	  reverse-video control -TD
+	+ omit selection of ISO-8859-1 for G0 in enacs capability from linux2.6
+	  entry, to avoid conflict with the user-defined mapping.  The reset
+	  feature will use ISO-8859-1 in any case (Mikulas Patocka).
+	+ improve check in tic for delays by also warning about beep/flash
+	  when a delay is not embedded, or if those use the VT100 reverse
+	  video escape without using a delay.
+	+ minor fix for syntax-check of delays from 20161119 changes.
+	+ modify trace() to avoid overwriting existing file (report by Maor
+	  Shwartz).
+
 20161119
 	+ add check in tic for some syntax errors of delays, as well as use of
 	  proportional delays for non-line capabilities.
