+20110521
+	+ fix warnings from clang 2.7 "--analyze"
+
+20110514
+	+ compiler-warning fixes in panel and progs.
+	+ modify CF_PKG_CONFIG macro, from changes to tin -TD
+	+ modify CF_CURSES_FUNCS configure macro, used in test directory
+	  configure script:
+	  + work around (non-optimizer) bug in gcc 4.2.1 which caused
+	    test-expression to be omitted from executable.
+	  + force the linker to see a link-time expression of a symbol, to
+	    help work around weak-symbol issues.
+
+20110507
+	+ update discussion of MKfallback.sh script in INSTALL; normally the
+	  script is used automatically via the configured makefiles.  However
+	  there are still occasions when it might be used directly by packagers
+	  (report by Gunter Schaffler).
+	+ modify misc/ncurses-config.in to omit the "-L" option from the
+	  "--libs" output if the library directory is /usr/lib.
+	+ change order of tests for curses.h versus ncurses.h headers in the
+	  configure scripts for Ada95 and test-directories, to look for
+	  ncurses.h, from fixes to tin -TD
+	+ modify ncurses/tinfo/access.c to account for Tandem's root uid
+	  (report by Joachim Schmitz).
+
+20110430
+	+ modify rules in Ada95/src/Makefile.in to ensure that the PIC option
+	  is not used when building a static library (report by Nicolas
+	  Boulenguez):
+	+ Ada95 build-fix for big-endian architectures such as sparc.  This
+	  undoes one of the fixes from 20110319, which added an "Unused" member
+	  to representation clauses, replacing that with pragmas to suppress
+	  warnings about unused bits (patch by Nicolas Boulenguez):
+
+20110423
+	+ add check in test/configure for use_window, use_screen.
+	+ add configure-checks for getopt's variables, which may be declared
+	  as different types on some Unix systems.
+	+ add check in test/configure for some legacy curses types of the
+	  function pointer passed to tputs().
+	+ modify init_pair() to accept -1's for color value after
+	  assume_default_colors() has been called (Debian #337095).
+	+ modify test/background.c, adding commmand-line options to demonstrate
+	  assume_default_colors() and use_default_colors().
+
+20110416
+	+ modify configure script/source-code to only define _POSIX_SOURCE if
+	  the checks for sigaction and/or termios fail, and if _POSIX_C_SOURCE
+	  and _XOPEN_SOURCE are undefined (report by Valentin Ochs).
+	+ update config.guess, config.sub
+
+20110409
+	+ fixes to build c++ binding with clang 3.0 (patch by Alexander
+	  Kolesen).
+	+ add check for unctrl.h in test/configure, to work around breakage in
+	  some ncurses packages.
+	+ add "--disable-widec" option to test/configure script.
+	+ add "--with-curses-colr" and "--with-curses-5lib" options to the
+	  test/configure script to address testing with very old machines.
+
+20110404 5.9 release for upload to ftp.gnu.org
+
+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
 	+ add special check in Ada95/configure script for ncurses6 reentrant
 	  code.
