+
+ Avoid po4a confusion with \c
+
+ po4a >= 0.58 (I think) changes its handling of \c slightly, resulting in
+ incorrect output for the admittedly awkward uses of \c in man(1).
+ Rearrange markup to avoid this.
+
+ * man/man1/man.man1 (OVERVIEW): Recast description of the syntax of
+ locale environment variables using \f[BIR] rather than .B/.RI and \c.
+ (Controlling formatted output): Coalesce markup for the default prompt
+ into a single .BI macro, avoiding the need for \c. Unfuzzy most
+ translations.
+ * NEWS: Document this.

+
+ Fix po4a version comparison
+
+ po4a's versions don't quite conform to Perl's standard versioning
+ arrangements, producing very confusing results when trying to compare
+ two-component and three-component versions (because "0.47" is equivalent
+ to "v0.470.0"). Perhaps we should use some other version comparison
+ system instead, but in the meantime patch things up so that what we
+ currently use behaves more sensibly.
+
+ * man/po4a/Locale/Po4a/Manext.pm (_parse_version): New subroutine.
+ (shiftline, pushline, translate): Use _parse_version, and always use a
+ leading "v" on the right-hand side.

+
+ Clarify description of zstd in configure
+
+ Suggested by crabbed halo ablution in Savannah bug #57558.
+
+ * configure.ac: Describe zstd as "LZ77/entropy-coding compression
+ utility".
