+20110402
+ + various build-fixes for the rpm/dpkg scripts.
+ + add "--enable-rpath-link" option to Ada95/configure, to allow
+ packages to suppress the rpath feature which is normally used for
+ the in-tree build of sample programs.
+ + corrected definition of libdir variable in Ada95/src/Makefile.in,
+ needed for rpm script.
+ + add "--with-shared" option to Ada95/configure script, to allow
+ making the C-language parts of the binding use appropriate compiler
+ options if building a shared library with gnat.
+
+20110329
+ > portability fixes for Ada95 binding:
+ + add configure check to ensure that SIGINT works with gnat. This is
+ needed for the "rain" sample program. If SIGINT does not work, omit
+ that sample program.
+ + correct typo in check of $PKG_CONFIG variable in Ada95/configure
+ + add ncurses_compat.c, to supply functions used in the Ada95 binding
+ which were added in 5.7 and later.
+ + modify sed expression in CF_NCURSES_ADDON to eliminate a dependency
+ upon GNU sed.
+
20110326
