   2012/10/14 -
     * review/improve no-leaks checking with valgrind.
     * add  null-pointer checks in copyOut in case a non-8bit encoding was
       used with the iconv configuration.
     * document environment variables used by luit in its manpage.
     * amend  the  check using nl_langinfo(CODESET) in 2011/10/30 changes,
       ignoring  that section if the -encoding option was given (report by
       Alexios Zavras).
     * support --datarootdir option in configure script.
     * updated configure macros:

        CF_FUNC_GRANTPT
                add another step to the test-program.

        CF_FUNC_POLL
                fix  the case where stdin is redirected, e.g., in rpm/dpkg
                builds   (reported   in   Debian  #676461).  Also  correct
                return-check,  which could have been confused by typing on
                the keyboard while the check was running.

        CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES
                use   AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED()   rather   than   appending  to
                confdefs.h,  since  long-ago  concern about the ability to
                pass-through  parameterized  macros  appears  to  be not a
                problem, testing with 2.13 and 2.52

        CF_GCC_VERSION
                add  workaround  for  Debian's modification of the version
                message

        CF_GCC_WARNINGS
                add check for clang

        CF_PATHSEP
                add message to show the actual value used.

        CF_PATH_SYNTAX
                also   match   (for   substitution)   variables   such  as
                ${includedir}

        CF_WITH_PATH
                fix after changes in ncurses to use --datarootdir

        CF__GRANTPT_BODY
                add an ifdef'd chunk #5 for testing the 'tty' (rather than
                'pty')  and moved the important 'pty' chunk before opening
                the  slave  device  as  a  simple  way  of making the test
                program   lose  any  possible  race  between  parent/child
                processes in initializing both sides of the pseudoterminal
                (report by Christian Weisgerber).

        miscellaneous
                cleanup based on byacc 20121003.

     * update config.guess, config.sub
