+20181013
+       + amend change from 20180818, which undid a fix for the $INSTALL value
+         to make it an absolute path.
+
+20181006
+       + improve a configure check to work with newer optimizers (report by
+         Denis Pronin, Gentoo #606142).
+       + fix typo in tput.c (Sven Joachim, cf: 20180825).
+
+20180929
+       + fix typo in tvi955 -TD
+       + corrected acsc for regent60 -TD
+       + add alias n7900 -TD
+       + corrected acsc for tvi950 -TD
+       + remove bogus kf0 from tvi950 -TD
+       + added function-key definitions to agree with Televideo 950 manual -TD
+       + add bel to tvi950 -TD
+       + add shifted function-keys to regent60 -TD
+       + renumber regent40 function-keys to match manual -TD
+       + add cd (clr_eos) to adds200 -TD
+
+20180923
+       + build-fix: remove a _tracef call which was used for debugging (report
+         by Chris Clayton).
+
+20180922
+       + ignore interrupted system-call in test/ncurses's command-line, e.g.,
+         if the terminal were resized.
+       + add shift/control/alt logic for decoding xterm's 1006 mode (Redhat
+         #1610681, cf: 20141011).
+       + modify rpm test-packages to not use --disable-relink with Redhat,
+         since Fedora 28's tools do not work with that feature.
+
+20180908
+       + document --with-pcre2 configure option in INSTALL.
+       + improve workaround for special case in PutAttrChar() where a cell is
+         marked as alternate-character set, to handle a case where the
+         character in the cell does not correspond to any of the ASCII
+         fallbacks (report by Leon Winter, cf: 20180505).
+       + amend change to form library which attempted to avoid unnecessary
+         update of cursor position in non-public fields, to simply disable
+         output in this case (patch by Leon Winter, cf: 20180414).
+       + improve check for LINE_MAX runtime limit, to accommodate broken
+         implementations of sysconf().
+
 20180901
        + improve manual page for wgetnstr, giving background for the length
          parameter.
