+20170415
+	+ modify several test programs to use new popup_msgs, adapted from
+	  help-screen used in test/edit_field.c
+	+ drop two symbols obsoleted in 2004: _nc_check_termtype, and
+	  _nc_resolve_uses
+	+ fix some old copyright dates (cf: 20031025).
+	+ build-fixes for test/savescreen.c to work with AIX and HPUX.
+	+ minor fix to configure script, adding a backslash/continuation.
+	+ extend TERMINAL structure for ABI 6 to store numbers internally as
+	  integers rather than short, by adding new data for this purpose.
+	+ more fixes for minor memory-leaks in test-programs.
+
+20170408
+	+ change logic in wins_nwstr() to avoid addressing data past the output
+	  of mbstowcs().
+	+ correct a call to setcchar() in Data_Entry_w() from 20131207 changes.
+	+ fix minor memory-leaks in test-programs.
+	+ further improve ifdef in term_entry.h for internal definitions not
+	  used by tack.
+
+20170401
+	+ minor fixes for vt100+4bsd, e.g., delay in sgr for consistency -TD
+	+ add smso for env230, to match sgr -TD
+	+ remove p7/protect from sgr in fbterm -TD
+	+ drop setf/setb from fbterm; setaf/setab are enough -TD
+	+ make xterm-pcolor sgr consistent with other capabilities -TD
+	+ add rmxx/smxx ECMA-48 strikeout extension to tmux and xterm-basic
+	  (discussion with Nicholas Marriott)
+	+ add test-programs sp_tinfo and extended_color
+	+ modify no-leaks code for lib_cur_term.c to account for the tgetent()
+	  cache.
+	+ modify setupterm() to save original tty-modes so that erasechar()
+	  works as expected.  Also modify _nc_setupscreen() to avoid redundant
+	  calls to get original tty-modes.
+	+ modify set_curterm() to update ttytype[] data used by longname().
+	+ modify wattr_set() and wattr_get() to return ERR if win-parameter is
+	  null, as documented.
+	+ improve cast used for null-pointer checks in header macros, to
+	  reduce compiler warnings.
+	+ modify several functions, using the reserved "opts" parameter to pass
+	  color- and pair-values larger than 16-bits:
+	  + getcchar(), setcchar(), slk_attr_set(), vid_puts(), wattr_get(),
+	    wattr_set(), wchgat(), wcolor_set().
+	  + Other functions call these with the corresponding altered behavior,
+	    including chgat(), mvchgat(), mvwchgat(), slk_color_on(),
+	    slk_color_off(), vid_attr().
+	+ add new functions for manipulating color- and pair-values larger
+	  than 16-bits.  These are extended_color_content(),
+	  extended_pair_content(), extended_slk_color(), init_extended_color(),
+	  init_extended_pair(), and the corresponding sp-funcs.
+
+20170325
+	+ fix a memory leak in the window-list when creating multiple screens
+	  (reports by Andres Martinelli, Debian #783486).
+	+ reviewed calls from link_test.c, added a few more null-pointer
+	  checks.
+	+ add a null-pointer check in ungetmouse, in case mousemask was not
+	  called (report by "Kau").
+	+ updated curs_sp_funcs.3x for new functions.
+
+20170318
+	+ change TERMINAL structure in term.h to make it opaque.  Some
+	  applications misuse its members, e.g., directly modifying it
+	  rather than using def_prog_mode().
+	+ modify utility headers such as tic.h to make it clearer which are
+	  externals that are used by tack.
+	+ improve curs_slk.3x in particular its discussion of portability.
+	+ fix cut/paste in legacy_encoding.3x
+	+ add prototype for find_pair() to new_pair.3x (report by Branden
+	  Robinson).
+	+ fix a couple of broken links in generated man-html documentation.
+	+ regenerate man-html documentation.
+
 20170311
 	+ modify vt100 rs2 string to reset vt52 mode and scrolling regions
