Comment:

 {{{
 Patch #366 - 2021/02/10

     correct a compiler-warning fix in patch #352 which allowed sign-
 extension of coordinate values (report by "CismonX").
     correct upper-limit for selection buffer, accounting for combining
 characters (report/testcase by Tavis Ormandy).
     with alwaysHighlight true, xterm does not properly track focus. The
 screen->select FOCUS flag remains always on, which prevents bellIsUrgent
 from working, as the urgent WM_HINT flag is only set in setXUrgency() when
 the window is not focused. Fix this by updating screen->select in
 unselectwindow() regardless of the value of always_highlight (patch by
 Jiri Bohac).
     improve fix for interaction between SRM and ENQ (report by Grant
 Taylor).
     build-fix for --with-Xaw3dxft, needed when --with-toolbar is omitted
 (report by Jimmy Olgeni, Emanuel Haupt).

 This seems to also contain a fix for CVE-2021-26937

 Note that GNU Screen is impacted as well, and it was the original package
 that was used to discover this bug. Screen is still vulnerable, and the
 maintainer seems to be working on a patch with the researchers that
 discovered it.
