+20111030
+	+ modify make_db_path() to allow creating "terminfo.db" in the same
+	  directory as an existing "terminfo" directory.  This fixes a case
+	  where switching between hashed/filesystem databases would cause the
+	  new hashed database to be installed in the next best location -
+	  root's home directory.
+	+ add variable cf_cv_prog_gnat_correct to those passed to
+	  config.status, fixing a problem with Ada95 builds (cf: 20111022).
+	+ change feature test from _XPG5 to _XOPEN_SOURCE in two places, to
+	  accommodate broken implementations for _XPG6.
+	+ eliminate usage of NULL symbol from etip.h, to reduce header
+	  interdependencies.
+	+ add configure check to decide when to add _XOPEN_SOURCE define to
+	  compiler options, i.e., for Solaris 10 and later (cf: 20100403).
+	  This is a workaround for gcc 4.6, which fails to build the c++
+	  binding if that symbol is defined by the application, due to
+	  incorrectly combining the corresponding feature test macros
+	  (report by Peter Kruse).
+
+20111022
+	+ correct logic for discarding mouse events, retaining the partial
+	  events used to build up click, double-click, etc, until needed
+	  (cf: 20110917).
+	+ fix configure script to avoid creating unused Ada95 makefile when
+	  gnat does not work.
+	+ cleanup width-related gcc 3.4.3 warnings for 64-bit platform, for the
+	  internal functions of libncurses.  The external interface of courses
+	  uses bool, which still produces these warnings.
+
+20111015
+	+ improve description of --disable-tic-depends option to make it
+	  clear that it may be useful whether or not the --with-termlib
+	  option is also given (report by Sven Joachim).
+	+ amend termcap equivalent for set_pglen_inch to use the X/Open
+	  "YI" rather than the obsolete Solaris 2.5 "sL" (cf: 990109).
+	+ improve manpage for tgetent differences from termcap library.
+
+20111008
+	+ moved static data from db_iterator.c to lib_data.c
+	+ modify db_iterator.c for memory-leak checking, fix one leak.
+	+ modify misc/gen-pkgconfig.in to use Requires.private for the parts
+	  of ncurses rather than Requires, as well as Libs.private for the
+	  other library dependencies (prompted by Debian #644728).
+
+20111001
+	+ modify tic "-K" option to only set the strict-flag rather than force
+	  source-output.  That allows the same flag to control the parser for
+	  input and output of termcap source.
+	+ modify _nc_getent() to ignore backslash at the end of a comment line,
+	  making it consistent with ncurses' parser.
+	+ restore a special-case check for directory needed to make termcap
+	  text files load as if they were databases (cf: 20110924).
+	+ modify tic's resolution/collision checking to attempt to remove the
+	  conflicting alias from the second entry in the pair, which is
+	  normally following in the source file.  Also improved the warning
+	  message to make it simpler to see which alias is the problem.
+	+ improve performance of the database iterator by caching search-list.
+
+20110925
+	+ add a missing "else" in changes to _nc_read_tic_entry().
+
+20110924
+	+ modify _nc_read_tic_entry() so that hashed-database is checked before
+	  filesystem.
+	+ updated CF_CURSES_LIBS check in test/configure script.
+	+ modify configure script and makefiles to split TIC_ARGS and
+	  TINFO_ARGS into pieces corresponding to LDFLAGS and LIBS variables,
+	  to help separate searches for tic- and tinfo-libraries (patch by Nick
+	  Alcock aka "Nix").
+	+ build-fix for lib_mouse.c changes (cf: 20110917).
+
+20110917
+	+ fix compiler warning for clang 2.9
+	+ improve merging of mouse events (integrated patch by Damien
+	  Guibouret).
+	+ correct mask-check used in lib_mouse for wheel mouse buttons 4/5
+	  (patch by Damien Guibouret).
+
 20110910
 	+ modify misc/gen_edit.sh to select a "linux" entry which works with
 	  the current kernel rather than assuming it is always "linux3.0"
