+       + regenerated ".map" and ".sym" files using improved script, showing
+         the combinations of configure options used at each stage.
+
+20150124
+       + add configure check to determine if "local: _*;" can be used in the
+         ".map" files to selectively omit symbols beginning with "_".  On at
+         least recent FreeBSD, the wildcard applies to all "_" symbols.
+       + remove obsolete/conflicting rule for ncurses.map from
+         ncurses/Makefile.in (cf:  20130706).
+
+20150117
+       + improve description in INSTALL of the --with-versioned-syms option.
+       + add combination of --with-hashed-db and --with-ticlib to
+         configurations for ".map" files (report by Werner Fink).
+
 20150110
        + add a step to generating ".map" files, to declare any remaining
          symbols beginning with "_" as local, at the last version node.
