+The llib-lXXXX files could be used as lint-library sources (and were, at one
+time). However, they are actually used as a documentation aid to keep track
+of changes to the public/private interfaces in ncurses. Most of the text in
+these files is generated using cproto; some manual cleanup and adjustment of
+types (to reflect #define's in curses.h) is needed. The functions listed in
+the llib-lXXXX files do not correspond to the default configure options; some
+additional ones are added to include "all" of the entrypoints for each of the
+major configurations (normal, wide-character, threaded):

+ --disable-macros
+ --disable-root-environ
+ --enable-expanded
+ --enable-getcap
+ --enable-getcap-cache
+ --enable-sp-funcs
+ --enable-termcap
