+20080816
+	+ add configure option --enable-weak-symbols to turn on new feature.
+	+ add configure-check for availability of weak symbols.
+	+ modify linkage with pthread library to use weak symbols so that
+	  applications not linked to that library will not use the mutexes,
+	  etc.  This relies on gcc, and may be platform-specific (patch by Dr
+	  Werner Fink).
+	+ add note to INSTALL to document limitation of renaming of tic library
+	  using the --with-ticlib configure option (report by Dr Werner Fink).
+	+ document (in manpage) why tputs does not detect I/O errors (prompted
+	  by comments by Samuel Thibault).
+	+ fix remaining warnings from Klocwork report.

+	+ modify configure script CF_XOPEN_SOURCE macro to add case for
+	  "dragonfly" from xterm #236 changes.
+	+ modify configure script --with-hashed-db to let $LIBS override the
+	  search for the db library (prompted by report by Samson Pierre).
+
