+20130727
+       + improve configure macros from ongoing work on cdk, dialog, xterm:
+         + CF_ADD_LIB_AFTER - fix a problem with -Wl options
+         + CF_RPATH_HACK - add missing result-message
+         + CF_SHARED_OPTS - modify to use $rel_builddir in cygwin and mingw
+           dll symbols (which can be overridden) rather than explicit "../".
+         + CF_SHARED_OPTS - modify NetBSD and DragonFly symbols to use ${CC}
+           rather than ${LD} to improve rpath support.
+         + CF_SHARED_OPTS - add a symbol to denote the temporary files that
+           are created by the macro, to simplify clean-rules.
+         + CF_X_ATHENA - trim extra libraries to work with -Wl,--as-needed
+       + fix a regression in hashed-database support for NetBSD, which uses
+         the key-size differently from other implementations (cf: 20121229).

        + further improvements for setupterm manpage, clarifying the
          initialization of cur_term.
