+20180331
+       + improve terminfo write/read by modifying the fourth item of the
+         extended header to denote the number of valid strings in the extended
+         string table (prompted by a comment in unibilium's sources).
+
+20180324
+       + amend Scaled256() macro in test/picsmap.c to cover the full range
+         0..1000 (report by Roger Pau Monne).
+       + add some checks in tracemunch for undefined variables.
+
+20180317
+       + fix a check in infotocap which may not have detected a problem when
+         it should have.
+       + add a check in tic for the case where setf/setb are given using
+         different strings, but provide identical results to setaf/setab.
+       + further improve fix for terminfo.5 (patch by Kir Kolyshkin).
+       + reorder loop-limit checks in winsnstr() in case the string has no
+         terminating null and only the number of characters is used (patch
+         by Gyorgy Jeney).
+
 20180303
        + modify TurnOn/TurnOff macros in lib_vidattr.c and lib_vid_attr.c to
          avoid expansion of "CUR" in trace.
