+       + minor changes to some configure macros to make them more reusable.
+       + fixes for tabs program (prompted by report by Nick Andrik):
+         + corrected logic in command-line parsing of -a and -c predefined
+           tab-lists options.
+         + allow "-0" and "-8" options to be combined with others, e.g.,"-0d".
+         + make warning messages more consistent with the other utilities by
+           not printing the full pathname of the program.
+         + add -V option for consistency with other utilities.
+       + fix off-by-one in columns for tabs program when processing an option
+         such as "-5" (patch by Nick Andrik).
+
+20130608
+       + add to test/demo_forms.c examples of using the menu-hooks as well
+         as showing how the menu item user-data can be used to pass a callback
+         function pointer.
+       + add test/dots_termcap.c
+       + remove setupterm call from test/demo_termcap.c
+       + build-fix if --disable-ext-funcs configure option is used.
+       + modified test/edit_field.c and test/demo_forms.c to move the lengths
+         into a user-data structure, keeping the original string for later
+         expansion to free-format input/out demo.
+       + modified test/demo_forms.c to load data from file.
+       + added note to clarify Terminal.app's non-emulation of the various
+         terminal types listed in the preferences dialog -TD
+       + fix regression in error-reporting in lib_setup.c (Debian #711134,
+         cf: 20121117).
+       + build-fix for a case where --enable-broken_linker and
+         --enable-reentrant options are combined (report by George R Goffe).

        + modify mvcur() to distinguish between internal use by the ncurses
          library, and external callers, preventing it from reading the content
