+ + add vte-2012, gnome-2012, making these the defaults for vte/gnome
+ (patch by Christian Persch).
+
+20121006
+ + improve CF_GCC_VERSION to work around Debian's customization of gcc
+ --version message.
+ + improve configure macros as done in byacc:
+ + drop 2.13 compatibility; use 2.52.xxxx version only since EMX port

+ for experimental use.

+20120922
+ + modify setupterm to set its copy of TERM to "unknown" if configured

+ "#win32con" or an abbreviation of that.
+ + undo recent change to fallback definition of vsscanf() to build with
+ older Solaris compilers (cf: 20120728).

+ + add test-screens to test/ncurses to show 256-characters at a time,
