+20100911
+	+ add manpages for summarizing public variables of curses-, terminfo-
+	  and form-libraries.
+	+ minor fixes to manpages for consistency (patch by Jason McIntyre).
+	+ modify tic's -I/-C dump to reformat acsc strings into canonical form
+	  (sorted, unique mapping) (cf: 971004).
+	+ add configure check for pthread_kill(), needed for some old
+	  platforms.
+
+20100904
+	+ add configure option --without-tests, to suppress building test
+	  programs (request by Frederic L W Meunier).
+
+20100828
+	+ modify nsterm, xnuppc and tek4115 to make sgr/sgr0 consistent -TD
+	+ add check in terminfo source-reader to provide more informative
+	  message when someone attempts to run tic on a compiled terminal
+	  description (prompted by Debian #593920).
+	+ note in infotocap and captoinfo manpages that they read terminal
+	  descriptions from text-files (Debian #593920).
+	+ improve acsc string for vt52, show arrow keys (patch by Benjamin
+	  Sittler).
+
+20100814
+	+ document in manpages that "mv" functions first use wmove() to check
+	  the window pointer and whether the position lies within the window
+	  (suggested by Poul-Henning Kamp).
+	+ fixes to curs_color.3x, curs_kernel.3x and wresize.3x manpages (patch
+	  by Tim van der Molen).
+	+ modify configure script to transform library names for tic- and
+	  tinfo-libraries so that those build properly with Mac OS X shared
+	  library configuration.
+	+ modify configure script to ensure that it removes conftest.dSYM
+	  directory leftover on checks with Mac OS X.
+	+ modify configure script to cleanup after check for symbolic links.
+
+20100807
+	+ correct a typo in mk-1st.awk (patch by Gabriele Balducci)
+	  (cf: 20100724)
+	+ improve configure checks for location of tic and infocmp programs
+	  used for installing database and for generating fallback data,
+	  e.g., for cross-compiling.
+	+ add Markus Kuhn's wcwidth function for compiling MinGW
+	+ add special case to CF_REGEX for cross-compiling to MinGW target.
+
+20100731
+	+ modify initialization check for win32con driver to eliminate need for
+	  special case for TERM "unknown", using terminal database if available
+	  (prompted by discussion with Roumen Petrov).
+	+ for MinGW port, ensure that terminal driver is setup if tgetent()
+	  is called (patch by Roumen Petrov).
+	+ document tabs "-0" and "-8" options in manpage.
+	+ fix Debian "lintian" issues with manpages reported in
+	  http://lintian.debian.org/full/csmall@debian.org.html#ncurses
+
+20100724
+	+ add a check in tic for missing set_tab if clear_all_tabs given.
+	+ improve use of symbolic links in makefiles by using "-f" option if
+	  it is supported, to eliminate temporary removal of the target
+	  (prompted by http://www.t2-project.org/packages/ncurses.html)
+	+ minor improvement to test/ncurses.c, reset color pairs in 'd' test
+	  after exit from 'm' main-menu command.
+	+ improved ncu-indent, from mawk changes, allows more than one of
+	  GCC_NORETURN, GCC_PRINTFLIKE and GCC_SCANFLIKE on a single line.
+
+20100717
+	+ add hard-reset for rs2 to wsvt25 to help ensure that reset ends
+	  the alternate character set (patch by Nicholas Marriott)
+	+ remove tar-copy.sh and related configure/Makefile chunks, since the
+	  Ada95 binding is now installed using rules in Ada95/src.
+
 20100703
 	+ continue integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95
 	  + add/use configure check to turn on project rules for Ada95/src.

 	+ move leak-checking for comp_captab.c into _nc_leaks_tinfo() since
 	  that module since 20090711 is in libtinfo.
 	+ add configure option --enable-term-driver, to allow compiling with
-	  terminal-driver.  That is used in mingw port, and (being somewhat
+	  terminal-driver.  That is used in MinGW port, and (being somewhat
 	  more complicated) is an experimental alternative to the conventional
 	  termlib internals.  Currently, it requires the sp-funcs feature to
 	  be enabled.
