[tg] Fix shf.c-internal buffer overread on printing digits
[Jorg] Fix a typo in the testsuite
[arekm] Increase default edit line size (unless MKSH_SMALL)
[tg] Improve description of Emacs mode keybindings, especially ^U
[tg, arekm, jilles] Abort read builtin in case of read(2) errors
[tg, izabera, carstenh] Fix most of the ambiguous corner cases related

[tg] WDS_TPUTS now emits QCHAR newline reentrant-safe
[tg] Fix var=<< implementation (LP#1380389)
[tg, FreeBSD] Make XSI test(1) extensions behave as if they were POSIX

[tg, p120ph37] Remove support for using file descriptors with more
than a single digit, in preparation for named file descriptors
[tg] Correct, but simplify (at the potential cost of more tty I/O than

[slagtc, tg] Implement new evaluate-region editing command Esc+Ctrl-E
[tg] Prefer external rename utility over the recovery builtin
[tg] Remove redundant full-line redraws

[tg] Fix some bugs in the manpage and some occasional/minor code bugs
[tg, Brian Callahan] Mark tests requiring new perl as !need-pass
