+20110604
+       + fixes for MirBSD port:
+         + set default prefix to /usr.
+         + add support for shared libraries in configure script.
+         + use S_ISREG and S_ISDIR consistently, with fallback definitions.
+       + add a few more checks based on ncurses/link_test.
+       + modify MKlib_gen.sh to handle sp-funcs renaming of NCURSES_OUTC type.
+

+       + add case to CF_SHARED_OPTS for Interix (patch by Markus Duft).
+       + used ncurses/link_test to check for behavior when the terminal has
+         not been initialized and when an application passes null pointers
+         to the library.  Added checks to cover this (prompted by Redhat
+         #707344).
+       + modify MKlib_gen.sh to make its main() function call each function
+         with zero parameters, to help find inconsistent checking for null
+         pointers, etc.

        + fix warnings from clang 2.7 "--analyze"
