INCOMPAT_GETTEXT that are analogous to INCOMPAT_ICONV and contain lists of
shell wildcards intended to match against ${MACHINE_PLATFORM}. These
variables are used to note those platforms that have the named packages in
the base system but are incompatible in some way from the pkgsrc version
of the same package. Change INCOMPAT_CURSES to have the same sematics as
above. These variables allow much greater precision in specifying which
platforms have broken (for the purposes of pkgsrc) versions of software in
the base system that must be ignored.
The buildlink.mk files for these packages define private _INCOMPAT_*
versions of these variables, and they contain the default lists of
platforms that are known to have incompatible software bits.

most important changes: (for full summary see ChangeLog in the distfile)
========================================================================
- Beginning with 2.40, the reference version of Frotz (the DOS version) is
distributed under the GNU Public License rather than the old "no
commercial profit" license. And so is the Unix version.
- V6 games supported by drawing the outlines of pictures. True display of
the graphics are on hold until the X11 with GTK version is complete.
- Classical Infocom sound effects supported through the OSS drivers. I'm
only aware of "Lurking Horror" and "Sherlock: The Riddle of the Crown
Jewels" as having such sound effects. See the INSTALL file for
information on where the sound files should go.
- Quetzal save format is now the default. Old Zip 2.0 format is still
supported by command line option or config file setting.
- History searchs has been added. Type the beginning of a past command
and hit the up or down arrow key.
