+20180505
+       + add deprecation warnings for internal functions called by older
+         versions of tack.
+       + fix a special case in PutAttrChar() where a cell is marked as
+         alternate-character set, but the terminal does not actually support
+         the given graphic character.  This would happen in an older terminal
+         such as vt52, which lacks most line-drawing capability.
+       + use configure --with-config-suffix option to work around filename
+         conflict with Debian packages versus test-packages.
+       + update tracemunch to work with perl 5.26.2, which changed the rules
+         for escaping regular expressions.
+
 20180428
        + document new form-extension O_EDGE_INSERT_STAY (report by Leon
          Winter).
