+	+ improve manpage description for addch versus unctrl format used for
+	  non-printable characters.
+	+ modify version-check for gcc/g++, now works for msys2.
+	+ modify check in _nc_write_entry() for multiply defined aliases to
+	  report problems within the current runtime of tic rather than for
+	  conflicts with pre-existing terminal descriptions.
+	+ allow for MinGW32-/64-bit configurations to use _DEFAULT_SOURCE
+	+ clarify interaction of -R option versus -C, -I and -r in infocmp
+	  manpage.

+20230225
+	+ build-fixes for rpm test-packages.

+	  gettimeofday().
+
+20230218
+	+ configure-script improvements:

+	  + add configure macro for gettimeofday vs inline check
+
+20230211
+	+ set dwShareMode in calls to CreateConsoleScreenBuffer() (patch by
+	  Hannes Domani).
+	+ use CreateFile with "CONIN$", "CONOUT$" rather than GetStdHandle to
+	  obtain a handle on the actual console, avoiding redirection in the
+	  MinGW/Win32 configurations (adapted from patch by LIU Hao).

+	+ document XF, kxIN and kxOUT -TD
+	+ add note on sun/wscons/cmdtool/shelltool -TD

+20230121
+	+ correct limit-check when dumping tc/use clause via tic -I (report by
+	  Gabriel Ravier).
+	+ correct a check for manpage-alias in edit_man.sh, to work with out of
+	  tree builds (report by Sven Joachim).
+
+20230114
+	+ change RV to XR/xr, to avoid conflict with pre-existing usage in vim,
+	  to use RV/rv to denote DA2 and its response (discussion with Bram
+	  Moolenaar) -TD
+	+ add XF flag to xterm+focus so that termcap applications can be aware
+	  of terminals which may support focus in/out -TD
+	+ use xterm+focus in xterm-p370 and tmux -TD
+	+ improve configure-script macros vs compiler warnings.
+
+20230107

+	  Brian Inglis).
+	+ add BSD erase2 to characters handled by tset/reset.

+	  needed for use with the updated xterm descriptions (suggested by Bram
+	  Moolenaar).

+20221231 6.4 release for upload to ftp.gnu.org
