+20130427
+       + fix clang 3.2 warning in progs/dump_entry.c
+       + drop AC_TYPE_SIGNAL check; ncurses relies on c89 and later.
+
+20130413
+       + add MinGW to cases where ncurses installs by default into /usr
+         (prompted by discussion with Daniel Silva Ferreira).
+       + add -D option to infocmp's usage-message (patch by Miroslav Lichvar).
+       + add a missing 'int' type for main function in configure check for
+         type of bool variable, to work with clang 3.2 (report by Dmitri
+         Gribenko).
+       + improve configure check for static_cast, to work with clang 3.2
+         (report by Dmitri Gribenko).
+       + re-order rule for demo.o and macros defining header dependencies in
+         c++/Makefile.in to accommodate gmake (report by Dmitri Gribenko).
+
+20130406
+       + improve parameter checking in copywin().
+       + modify configure script to work around OS X's "libtool" program, to
+         choose glibtool instead.  At the same time, chance the autoconf macro
+         to look for a "tool" rather than a "prog", to help with potential use
+         in cross-compiling.
+       + separate the rpath usage for c++ library from demo program
+         (Redhat #911540)
+       + update/correct header-dependencies in c++ makefile (report by Werner
+         Fink).
+       + add --with-cxx-shared to dpkg-script, as done for rpm-script.
+
+20130324
+       + build-fix for libtool configuration (reports by Daniel Silva Ferreira
+         and Roumen Petrov).
+
 20130323
        + build-fix for OS X, to handle changes for --with-cxx-shared feature
          (report by Christian Ebert).

        + add configure option --with-cxx-shared to permit building
          libncurses++ as a shared library when using g++, e.g., the same
          limitations as libtool but better integrated with the usual build
-         configuration (Redhat 911540).
+         configuration (Redhat #911540).
        + modify MKkey_defs.sh to filter out build-path which was unnecessarily
          shown in curses.h (Debian #689131).
