+20160507
+	+ amend change to _nc_do_color to restore the early return for the
+	  special case used in _nc_screen_wrap (report by Dick Streefland,
+	  cf: 20151017).
+	+ modify test/ncurses.c:
+	  + check return-value of putwin
+	  + correct ifdef which made the 'g' test's legend not reflect changes
+	    to keypad- and scroll-modes.
+	+ correct return-value of extended putwin (report by Mike Gran).
+
+20160423
+	+ modify test/ncurses.c 'd' edit-color menu to optionally read xterm
+	  color palette directly from terminal, as well as handling KEY_RESIZE
+	  and screen-repainting with control/L and control/R.
+	+ add 'oc' capability to xterm+256color, allowing palette reset for
+	  xterm -TD
+
+20160416
+	+ add workaround in configure script for inept transition to PIE vs
+	  PIC builds documented in
+		  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Harden_All_Packages
+	+ add "reset" to list of programs whose names might change in manpages
+	  due to program-transformation configure options.
+	+ drop long-obsolete "-n" option from tset.
+
+20160409
+	+ modify test/blue.c to use Unicode values for card-glyphs when
+	  available, as well as improving the check for CP437 and CP850.
+
+20160402
+	+ regenerate HTML manpages.
+	+ improve manual pages for utilities with respect to POSIX versus
+	  X/Open Curses.
+
+20160326
+	+ regenerate HTML manpages.
+	+ improve test/demo_menus.c, allowing mouse-click on the menu-headers
+	  to switch the active menu.  This requires a new extension option
+	  O_MOUSE_MENU to tell the menu driver to put mouse events which do not
+	  apply to the active menu back into the queue so that the application
+	  can handle the event.
+
+20160319
+	+ improve description of tgoto parameters (report by Steffen Nurpmeso).
+	+ amend workaround for Solaris line-drawing to restore a special case
+	  that maps Unicode line-drawing characters into the acsc string for
+	  non-Unicode locales (Debian #816888).
+
+20160312
+	+ modified test/filter.c to illustrate an alternative to getnstr, that
+	  polls for input while updating a clock on the right margin as well
+	  as responding to window size-changes.
+
+20160305
+	+ omit a redefinition of "inline" when traces are enabled, since this
+	  does not work with gcc 5.3.x MinGW cross-compiling (cf: 20150912).
+
+20160220
+	+ modify test/configure script to check for pthread dependency of
+	  ncursest or ncursestw library when building ncurses examples, e.g.,
+	  in case weak symbols are used.
+	+ modify configure macro for shared-library rules to use -Wl,-rpath
+	  rather than -rpath to work around a bug in scons (FreeBSD #178732,
+	  cf: 20061021).
+	+ double-width multibyte characters were not counted properly in
+	  winsnstr and wins_nwstr (report/example by Eric Pruitt).
+	+ update config.guess, config.sub from
+		http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git
+
+20160213
+	+ amend fix for _nc_ripoffline from 20091031 to make test/ditto.c work
+	  in threaded configuration.
+	+ move _nc_tracebits, _tracedump and _tracemouse to curses.priv.h,
+	  since they are not part of the suggested ABI6.
+
+20160206
+	+ define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN for MinGW port, making builds faster.
+	+ modify test/ditto.c to allow $XTERM_PROG environment variable to
+	  override "xterm" as the name of the program to run in the threaded
+	  configuration.
+
 20160130
 	+ improve formatting of man/curs_refresh.3x and man/tset.1 manpages
 	+ regenerate HTML manpages using newer man2html to eliminate some
