+20111224
+	+ document a portability issue with tput, i.e., that scripts which work
+	  with ncurses may fail in other implementations that do no parameter
+	  analysis.
+	+ add putty-sco entry -TD
+
+20111217
+	+ review/fix places in manpages where --program-prefix configure option
+	  was not being used.
+	+ add -D option to infocmp, to show the database locations that it
+	  could use.
+	+ fix build for the special case where term-driver, ticlib and termlib
+	  are all enabled.  The terminal driver depends on a few features in
+	  the base ncurses library, so tic's dependencies include both ncurses
+	  and termlib.
+	+ fix build work for term-driver when --enable-wgetch-events option is
+	  enabled.
+	+ use <stdint.h> types to fix some questionable casts to void*.
+
+20111210
+	+ modify configure script to check if thread library provides
+	  pthread_mutexattr_settype(), e.g., not provided by Solaris 2.6
+	+ modify configure script to suppress check to define _XOPEN_SOURCE
+	  for IRIX64, since its header files have a conflict versus
+	  _SGI_SOURCE.
+	+ modify configure script to add ".pc" files for tic- and
+	  tinfo-libraries, which were omitted in recent change (cf: 20111126).
+	+ fix inconsistent checks on $PKG_CONFIG variable in configure script.
+
+20111203
+	+ modify configure-check for etip.h dependencies, supplying a temporary
+	  copy of ncurses_dll.h since it is a generated file (prompted by
+	  Debian #646977).
+	+ modify CF_CPP_PARAM_INIT "main" function to work with current C++.
+
+20111126
+	+ correct database iterator's check for duplicate entries
+	  (cf: 20111001).
+	+ modify database iterator to ignore $TERMCAP when it is not an
+	  absolute pathname.
+	+ add -D option to tic, to show the database locations that it could
+	  use.
+	+ improve description of database locations in tic manpage.
+	+ modify the configure script to generate a list of the ".pc" files to
+	  generate, rather than deriving the list from the libraries which have
+	  been built (patch by Mike Frysinger).
+	+ use AC_CHECK_TOOLS in preference to AC_PATH_PROGS when searching for
+	  ncurses*-config, e.g., in Ada95/configure and test/configure (adapted
+	  from patch by Mike Frysinger).
+
+20111119
+	+ remove obsolete/conflicting fallback definition for _POSIX_SOURCE
+	  from curses.priv.h, fixing a regression with IRIX64 and Tru64
+	  (cf: 20110416)
+	+ modify _nc_tic_dir() to ensure that its return-value is nonnull,
+	  i.e., the database iterator was not initialized.  This case is needed
+	  to when tic is translating to termcap, rather than loading the
+	  database (cf:  20111001).
+
 20111112
 	+ add pccon entries for OpenBSD console (Alexei Malinin).
 	+ build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 with gcc 4.2.1, setting _XOPEN_SOURCE to
