+       + add mach-gnu-color, tweaks to mach-gnu terminfo -TD
+       + make sgr for sun-color agree with smso -TD
+       + make sgr for prism9 agree with other caps -TD
+       + make sgr for icl6404 agree with other caps -TD
+       + make sgr for ofcons agree with other caps -TD

+       + make sgr for avt-ns agree with other caps -TD
+       + amend fix intended to separate fixups for acsc to allow "tic -cv" to
+         give verbose warnings (cf:  20110730). 
+       + modify misc/gen-edit.sh to make the location of the tabset directory
+         consistent with misc/Makefile.in, i.., using ${datadir}/tabset
+         (Debian #653435, patch by Sven Joachim).
+

+       + add --with-lib-prefix option to allow configuring for old/new flavors
+         of OS/2 EMX.
+       + modify check for gnat version to allow for year, as used in FreeBSD
+         port.
+       + modify check_existence() in db_iterator.c to simply check if the

+       + regenerated html manpages.

+         + modify stat() calls to ignore the st_size member
+         + drop mk-dlls.sh script.
+         + change recommended regular expression library.

          a column showing which entries belong to a given database.
