20020720
        + check error-return from _nc_set_tty_mode() in _nc_initscr() and
          reset_prog_mode() (report/patch by Philippe Blain).
        + regenerate configure using patch for autoconf 2.52, to address
          problem with identifying C++ bool type.
        + correct/improve logic to produce an exit status for errors in tput,
          which did not exit with an error when told to put a string not in the
          current terminfo entry (report by David Gomez <address@hidden>).
        + modify configure script AC_OUTPUT() call to work around defect in
          autoconf 2.52 which adds an ifdef'd include to the generated
          configure definitions.
        + remove fstat() check from scr_init(), which also fixes a missing
          include for <sys/stat.h> from 20020713 (reported by David Ellement,
          fix suggested by Philippe Blain).
        + update curs_scanw.3x manpage to note that XSI curses differs from
          SVr4 curses: return-values are incompatible.
        + correct several prototypes in manpages which used const
          inconsistently with the curses.h file, and removed spurious const's
          in a few places from curses.h, e.g., for wbkgd() (report by Glenn
          Maynard <address@hidden>).
        + change internal type used by tparm() to long, to work with LP64 model.
        + modify nc_alloc.h to allow building with g++, for testing.
