+20180825
+	+ add a section to tput manual page clarifying how it determines the
+	  terminal size (prompted by discussion with Grant Jenks).
+	+ add "--disable-relink" to rpm test-packages, for consistency with the
+	  deb test-packages.
+	+ split spec-file into ncurses6.spec and ncursest6.spec to work around
+	  toolset breakage in Fedora 28.
+	+ drop mention of "--disable-touching", which was not in the final
+	  20180818 updates.
+
+20180818
+	+ build-fix for PDCurses with ncurses-examples.
+	+ improved CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS.
+	+ modify configure scripts to reduce relinking/ranlib during library
+	  install (Debian #903790):
+	  + use "install -p" when available, to avoid need for ranlib of
+	    static libraries.
+	  + modify scripts which use "--disable-relink" to add a 1-second
+	    sleep to work around tools which use whole-second timestamps, e.g.,
+	    in utime() rather than the actual file system resolution.
+
+20180804
+	+ improve logic for clear with E3 extension, in case the terminal
+	  scrolls content onto its saved-lines before actually clearing
+	  the display, by clearing the saved-lines after clearing the
+	  display (report/patch by Nicholas Marriott).
+
+20180728
+	+ improve documentation regarding feature-test macros in curses.h
+	+ improve documentation regarding the virtual and physical screens.
+	+ formatting fixes for manpages, regenerate man-html documentation.
+
+20180721
+	+ build-fixes for gcc8.
+	+ corrected acsc for wy50 -TD
+	+ add wy50 and wy60 shifted function-keys as kF1 to kF16 -TD
+	+ remove ansi+rep mis-added to interix in 2018-02-23 -TD
+
+20180714
+	+ add enum, regex examples to test/demo_forms
+	+ add configure check for pcre-posix library to help with MinGW port.
+
+20180707
+	+ build-fixes for gcc8.
+	+ correct order of WINDOW._ttytype versus WINDOW._windowlist in
+	  report_offsets.
+	+ fix a case where tiparm could return null if the format-string was
+	  empty (Debian #902630).
+
+20180630
+	+ add acsc string to vi200 (Nibby Nebbulous)
+	  add right/down-arrow to vi200's acsc -TD
+	+ add "x" to tput's getopt string so that "tput -x clear" works
+	  (Nicholas Marriott).
+	+ minor fixes prompted by anonymous report on stack overflow:
+	  + correct order of checks in _nc_get_locale(), for systems lacking
+	    locale support.
+	  + add "#error" in a few places to flag unsupported configurations
+
+20180623
+	+ use _WIN32/_WIN64 in preference to __MINGW32__/__MINGW64__ symbols
+	  to simplify building with MSVC, since the former are defined in both
+	  compiler configurations (report by Ali Abdulkadir).
+	+ further improvements to configure-checks from work on dialog, i.e.,
+	  updated CF_ADD_INCDIR, CF_FIND_LINKAGE, CF_GCC_WARNINGS,
+	  CF_GNU_SOURCE, CF_LARGEFILE, CF_POSIX_C_SOURCE, CF_SIZECHANGE, and
+	  CF_TRY_XOPEN_SOURCE.
+	+ update config.guess, config.sub from
+		http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git
+
+20180616
+	+ build-fix for ncurses-examples related to gcc8-fixes (cf: 20180526).
+	+ reduce use of _GNU_SOURCE for current glibc where _DEFAULT_SOURCE
+	  combines with _XOPEN_SOURCE (Debian #900987).
+	+ change target configure level for _XOPEN_SOURCE to 600 to address
+	  use of vsscanf and setenv.
+	+ improved configure-checks CF_SIZECHANGE and CF_STRUCT_TERMIOS from
+	  work on dialog.
+
+20180609
+	+ modify generated ncurses*config and ncurses.pc, ncursesw.pc, etc.,
+	  to list helper libraries such as gpm for static linking (Debian
+	  #900839).
+	+ marked vwprintw and vwscanw as deprecated; recommend using vw_printw
+	  and vw_scanw, respectively.
+
+20180602
+	+ add RPM test-package "ncursest-examples".
+	+ modified RPM test-package to work with Mageia6.
