+         reference of anonymous struct typedef.

+       + minor fixes for tset manpage.
+

+
+20210905
+       + correct logic in filtering of redefinitions (report by Sven Joachim,

+
+20210904
+       + modify linux3.0 entry to reflect default mapping of shift-tab by
+         kbd 1.14 (report by Jan Engelhardt) -TD
+       + add historical note to tput, curses-terminfo and curses-color
+         manpages based on source-code for SVr2, SVr3 and SVr4.
+       + minor grammatical fixes for "it's" vs "its" (report by Nick Black).
+       + amend fix for --disable-root-environ (report by Arnav Singh).
+       + build-fix for compiling link_test
+       + drop symbols GCC_PRINTF and GCC_SCANF from curses.h.in, to simplify
+         use (Debian #993179).
+
+20210828
+       + correct reversed check for --disable-root-environ (report/analysis
+         by Arnav Singh, cf: 20210626).
+       + apply gcc format attribute to prototypes which use a va_list
+         parameter rather than a "..." variable-length parameter list
+         (prompted by discussion in a tmux pull-request).
+       + modify configure scripts to filter out redefinitions of _XOPEN_SOURCE,
+         e.g., for NetBSD which generally supports 500, but 600 is needed for
+         ncursesw.
+       + improve documentation for tparm and static/dynamic variables.
+       + improve typography in terminfo.5 (patch by Branden Robinson).
+

        + improve tparm implementation of %P and %g, more closely matching
          SVr4 terminfo.
