        + modify several descriptions, including those for setaf, setab, in
          include/Caps to indicate that the entries are parameterized.  This
          information is used to tell which strings are translated when
          converting to termcap.  Fixes a problem where the generated termcap
          would contain a spurious "%p1" for the terminfo "%p1%d".
        + modify ld -rpath options (e.g., Linux, and Solaris) to use an
          absolute pathname for the build tree's lib directory (prompted by
          discussion with Albert Chin-A-Young).
        + modify "make install.man" and "make uninstall.man" to include tack's
          man-page.
        + various fixes for install scripts used to support configure --srcdir
          and --with-install-prefix (reported by Matthew Clarke
          <address@hidden>).
        + make configure script checks on variables $GCC and $GXX consistently
          compare against 'yes' rather than test if they are nonnull, since
          either may be set to the corresponding name of the C or C++ compiler
          (report/patch by Albert Chin-A-Young).
