Please sync ...

Another fix in included, but not the Ubuntu one. My patch would probably
be based on the Ubuntu patch when it had been attached to the Debian
bug, but it is not.

Comment by a happy user (in German):

2008-06-29 17:55:56< XTaran> carstenh: Das neue hnb ist klasse. :)
2008-06-29 17:58:38< XTaran> Cursor im Edit-Mode tut endlich wieder. :)

Patch header:

hnb (1.9.18-4) * Fix broken cursor. This bug was introduced with the previous
                  patch which made all callbacks return void* and made hnb
                  64-bit clean. There is also a Ubuntu originated patch flying
                  around which also addresses the missing cursor (see hnb
                  1.9.18-3ubuntu2), but this patch has a minor bug in
                  completion mode. (Closes: #339613)

The minor bug introduced by Ubuntu I talked about in the patch header is
a off by one error in completion mode. Not changing code that you don't
need to change would prevent such bugs. ;)
