+	Should build `out-of-the-box', although various problems have
+	been encountered on HP-UX 11.x:
+
+	  Some of the special keys on the keyboard (backspace, delete)
+	  have been found to stop functioning.  One suggested fix is
+	  to alter the way the curses library is linked in the Makefile.
+	  Replacing `-lcurses' with `-lHcurses -lcurses' in the libraries
+	  is reported to fix.  An attempt to fix this in configure
+	  is apparently ineffective; more information would be appreciated
+	  as the maintainers do not have access to an HP-UX system.
