+20150912
+	+ fixes for configure/build using clang on OSX (prompted by report by
+	  William Gallafent).
+	  + do not redefine "inline" in ncurses_cfg.h; this was originally to
+	    solve a problem with gcc/g++, but is aggravated by clang's misuse
+	    of symbols to pretend it is gcc.
+	  + add braces to configure script to prevent unwanted add of
+	    "-lstdc++" to the CXXLIBS symbol.
+	  + improve/update test-program used for checking existence of stdc++
+	    library.
+	  + if $CXXLIBS is set, the linkage test uses that in addition to $LIBS
+
+20150905
+	+ add note in curs_addch.3x about line-drawing when it depends upon
+	  UTF-8.
+	+ add tic -q option for consistency with infocmp, use it to suppress
+	  all comments from the "tic -I" output.
+	+ modify infocmp -q option to suppress the "Reconstructed from"
+	  header.
+	+ add infocmp/tic -Q option, which allows one to dump the compiled
+	  form of the terminal entry, in hexadecimal or base64.
+
+20150822
+	+ sort options in usage message for infocmp, to make it simpler to
+	  see unused letters.
+	+ update usage message for tic, adding "-0" option.
+	+ documented differences in ESCDELAY versus AIX's implementation.
+	+ fix some compiler warnings from ports.
+	+ modify --with-pkg-config-libdir option to make it possible to install
+	  ".pc" files even if pkg-config is not found (adapted from patch by
+	  Joshua Root).
+
+20150815
+	+ disallow "no" as a possible value for "--with-shlib-version" option,
+	  overlooked in cleanup-changes for 20000708 (report by Tommy Alex).
+	+ update release notes in INSTALL.
+	+ regenerate llib-* files to help with review for release notes.
+
+20150810
+	+ workaround for Debian #65617, which was fixed in mawk's upstream
+	  releases in 2009 (report by Sven Joachim).  See
+	  	http://invisible-island.net/mawk/CHANGES.html#t20090727
+
+20150808 6.0 release for upload to ftp.gnu.org
+
+20150808
+	+ build-fix for Ada95 on older platforms without stdint.h
+	+ build-fix for Solaris, whose /bin/sh and /usr/bin/sed are non-POSIX.
+	+ update release announcement, summarizing more than 800 changes across
+	  more than 200 snapshots.
+	+ minor fixes to manpages, etc., to simplify linking from announcement
+	  page.
+
+20150725
+	+ updated llib-* files.
+	+ build-fixes for ncurses library "test_progs" rule.
+	+ use alternate workaround for gcc 5.x feature (adapted from patch by
+	  Mikhail Peselnik).
+	+ add status line to tmux via xterm+sl (patch by Nicholas Marriott).
+	+ fixes for st 0.5 from testing with tack -TD
+	+ review/improve several manual pages to break up wall-of-text:
+	  curs_add_wch.3x, curs_attr.3x, curs_bkgd.3x, curs_bkgrnd.3x,
+	  curs_getcchar.3x, curs_getch.3x, curs_kernel.3x, curs_mouse.3x,
+	  curs_outopts.3x, curs_overlay.3x, curs_pad.3x, curs_termattrs.3x
+	  curs_trace.3x, and curs_window.3x
+
+20150719
+	+ correct an old logic error for %A and %O in tparm (report by "zreed").
+	+ improve documentation for signal handlers by adding section in the
+	  curs_initscr.3x page.
+	+ modify logic in make_keys.c to not assume anything about the size
+	  of strnames and strfnames variables, since those may be functions
+	  in the thread- or broken-linker configurations (problem found by
+	  Coverity).
+	+ modify test/configure script to check for pthreads configuration,
+	  e.g., ncursestw library.
+
 20150711
 	+ modify scripts to build/use test-packages for the pthreads
 	  configuration of ncurses6.
