Ncurses (new curses) started as a freely distributable clone of SVr4 
curses. It has outgrown the clone description, and now contains many 
features which are not in SVr4 curses. Curses is a pun on the term 
"cursor optimization". It is a library of functions that manage an 
application's display on character-cell terminals.

This release updates ncurses to last week's upstream patch release.
