+20161210
+ + add configure script option --disable-wattr-macros for use in cases
+ where one wants to use the same headers for ncurses5/ncurses6
+ development, by suppressing the wattr* macros which differ due to
+ the introduction of extended colors (prompted by comments in
+ Debian #230990, Redhat #1270534).
+ + add test/tput-initc to demonstrate tput used to initialize palette
+ from a data file.
+ + modify test/xterm*.dat to use the newer color4/color12 values.
+
20161203
+ improve discussion of field validation in form_driver.3x manual page.
+ update curs_trace.3x manual page.
