+       + modify wbkgd() and wbkgrnd() to avoid storing a null in the
+         background character, because it may be used in cases where the
+         corresponding 0x80 is not treated as a null (report by Marc Rechte,
+         cf: 20181208).
+

        + modify CF_NCURSES_CONFIG to work around xcode's c99 "-W" option,
          which conflicts with conventional use for passing linker options.
