        + modify update_getenv() in db_iterator.c to ensure that environment
          variables which are not initially set will be checked later if an
          application happens to set them (patch by Guillaume Maudoux).
        + remove initialization-check for calling napms() in the term-driver
          configuration; none is needed.
        + add help-screen to test/test_getstr.c and test/test_get_wstr.c
        + improve compatibility between different configurations of new_prescr,
          fixing a case with threaded code and term-driver where c++/demo did
          not work (cf: 20160213).
        + the fixes for Redhat #1464685 obscured a problem subsequently
          reported in Redhat #1464687; the given test-case was no longer
          reproducible.  Testing without the fixes for the earlier reports
          showed a problem with buffer overflow in dump_entry.c, which is
          addressed by reducing the use of a fixed-size buffer.
        + add/improve checks in tic's parser to address invalid input
          (Redhat #1464684, #1464685, #1464686, #1464691).
          + alloc_entry.c, add a check for a null-pointer.
          + parse_entry.c, add several checks for valid pointers as well as
            one check to ensure that a single character on a line is not
            treated as the 2-character termcap short-name.
        + fix a memory leak in delscreen() (report by Bai Junq).
        + improve tracemunch, showing thread identifiers as names.
        + fix a use-after-free in NCursesMenu::~NCursesMenu()
        + further amend incorrect calls for memory-leaks from 20170617 changes
          (report by Allen Hewes).
