[This was on tech-userlevel@] I know I'm late, but the patch on tech-userlevel was kinda misleading as it used CURSES_VERSION in version.c and I didn't realize it was actually the netbsd version from osrelease.sh. Committed code calls it NETBSD_VERSION, which made me pay attention. Why would we ever want to report this completely random and unrelated fact?! There were years when curses in the tree was unchanged. In the mean time we have churned through dozens of netbsd versions. -uwe
