+20120324
+       + amend an old fix so that next_char() exits properly for empty files,
+         e.g., from reading /dev/null (cf: 20080804).
+       + modify tic so that it can read from the standard input, or from
+         a character device.  Because tic uses seek's, this requires writing
+         the data to a temporary file first (prompted by remark by Sven
+         Joachim) (cf: 20000923).
+

        + correct a check made in lib_napms.c, so that terminfo applications
          can again use napms() (cf: 20110604).
