        + add several cases to the wscanw() example in testcurs.c, showing the
          format.
        + implement a simple vsscanf() fallback function which uses the %n
          conversion to help parse the input data (prompted by discussion with
          Albert Chin-A-Young).
        + modify mk-1st.awk and test/Makefile.in to add $(LDFLAGS) when making
          shared libraries, and to use $(CFLAGS) when linking test programs
          (patch by Albert Chin-A-Young).
        + add a call to _nc_keypad() in keypad() to accommodate applications
          such as nvi, which use curses for output but not for input (fixes
          Debian #131263, cf: 20011215).
        + add entrypoints to resizeterm.c which provide better control over the
          process:  is_term_resized() and resize_term().  The latter restores
          the original design of resizeterm() before KEY_RESIZE was added in
          970906.  Do this to accommodate 20010922 changes to view.c, but allow
          for programs with their own sigwinch handler, such as lynx (reported
          by Russell Ruby <address@hidden>).
