        + modify lib_screen.c and lib_newwin.c to maintain the SCREEN-specific
          pointers for curscr/stdscr/newscr when scr_save() and scr_restore()
          modify the global curscr/stdscr/newscr variables.  Fixes Redhat
          bugzilla #68199 dated 2002-07-07.
        + add checks for null pointer in calls to tparm() and tgoto() based on
          FreeBSD bug report.  If ncurses were built with termcap support, and
          the first call to tgoto() were a zero-length string, the result would
          be a null pointer, which was not handled properly.
        + correct a typo in terminfo.head, which gave the octal code for colon
          rather than comma.
        + remove the "tic -u" option from 20020810, since it did not account
          for nested "tc=" clauses, and when that was addressed, was still
          unsatisfactory.
