+	<LI> tif_dir.c: Clear TIFF_ISTILED flag in TIFFDefaultDirectory
+	as per http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18
+	from vandrove@vc.cvut.cz.
+	<LI> Modified tif_packbits.c decoding to avoid overrunning the
+	output buffer, and to issue a warning if data needs to be
+	discarded.  See http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18
+	<LI> Modified TIFFClientOpen() to emit an error on an attempt to
+	open a comperessed file for update (O_RDWR/r+) access.  This is
+	because the compressor/decompressor code gets very confused when
+	the mode is O_RDWR, assuming this means writing only.  See
+	bug http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13
+	<LI> Applied patch for 0x0000 sequences in tif_fax3.h's definition
+	of EXPAND1D() as per bug 11 (from Roman).
+	<LI> Fixed tiffcomp.h to avoid win32 stuff if unix #defined, to improve
+	cygwin compatibility.
+	<LI> Applied patch from Roman Shpount to tif_fax3.c.  This seems to
+	be a proper fix to the buffer sizing problem.  See
+	http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11
+	<LI> Fixed tif_getimage.c to fix overrun bug with YCbCr images without
+	downsampling.  http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10
+	Thanks to Nick Lamb <njl98r@ecs.soton.ac.uk> for reporting the
+	bug and proving the patch.
+	<LI> Fixed tif_jpeg.c so avoid destroying the decompressor before
+	we are done access data thanks to bug report from:
+	Michael Eckstein <eckstein@gepro.cz>.
+	<LI> tif_open.c: Don't set MMAP for O_RDWR files.
+	<LI> tif_open.c: Set STRIPCHOP_DEFAULT for O_RDWR as well as O_RDONLY
+	so that files opened for update can be strip chopped too.
+	<LI> tif_read.c: fixed up bug with files missing rowsperstrip and
+	the strips per separation fix done a few weeks ago.
+	<LI> Tentatively added support for SAMPLEFORMAT_COMPLEXIEEEFP, and
+	SAMPLEFORMAT_COMPLEXINT.
+	<LI> index.html, bugs.html: added bugzilla info.
+	<LI> tif_read.c: fix subtle bug with determining the number of
+	rows for strips that are the last strip in a separation but
+	not the last strip of all in TIFFReadEncodedStrip().
+	<LI> Applied 16/32 bit fix to tif_fax3.c.  Fix supplied by
+	Peter Skarpetis <peters@serendipity-software.com.au>
+	<LI> Modified tiffio.h logic with regard to including windows.h.  It
+	won't include it when building with __CYGWIN__.
+	<LI> README: update to mention www.libtiff.org, don't list Sam's old
+	email address.
+	<LI> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Don't use estimate strip byte count for
+	one tile/strip images with an offset, and byte count of zero. These
+	could be "unpopulated" images.
+	<LI> tif_win32.c:  Applied patch to fix overreads and ovverwrites
+	  caught by BoundsChecker.  From Arvan Pritchard
+	  <arvan.pritchard@infomatix.co.uk>  (untested).

+<UL>
+<li> libtiff/libtiff.def: Brent Roman submitted new version adding
+serveral missing entry points.  Also add a few other entry points
+later.
+<li> configure, Makefile.in, etc: added support for OPTIMIZER being
+	set from config.site.
+<li> config.guess: updated wholesale to an FSF version apparently
+	from 1998 (as opposed to 1994).  This is mainly inspired by
+	providing for MacOS X support.
+<li> configure/config.site: modified to check if -lm is needed for
+	MACHDEPLIBS if not supplied by config.site.  Needed for Darwin.
+<li> libtiff/tiff.h: Applied hac to try and resolve the problem
+	with the inttypes.h include file on AIX. (Bug 39)
+<li> configure, *Makefile.in: Various changes to improve configuration
+	for HP/UX specifically, and also in general.  (Bug 40) They include:
+<ul>
+ <li> Try to handle /usr/bin/sh instead of /bin/sh where necessary.
+ <li> Upgrade to HP/UX 10.x+ compiler, linker and dso options.
+ <li> Fixed mmap() test to avoid MMAP_FIXED ... it isn't available on HP
+ <li> Use -${MAKEFLAGS} in sub makes from makefiles.
+ <li> Fixed SCRIPT_SH/SHELL handling.
+</ul>
+<li> configure: Changes for DSO generation on AIX provided by
+	John Marquart <jomarqua@indiana.edu>.
+<li> configure, libtiff/Makefile.in: Modified to build DSOs properly
+	on Darwin thanks to Robert Krajewski (rpk@alum.mit.edu) and
+	Keisuke Fujii (fujiik@jlcuxf.kek.jp).
+<li> configure, libtiff/Makefile.in: applied OpenBSD patches as per bug 61.
+<li> Makefile.in: added DESTDIR support as per bug 60.
+<li> libtiff/tif_jpeg.c: Define HAVE_BOOLEAN on windows if RPCNDR.H
+	has been included.
+<li> man/Makefile.in: add TIFFClientOpen link as per debian submitted
+	bug 66.
+<li> libtiff/Makefile.in: Fixed @DSOSUB_VERSION to be @DSOSUF_VERSION@
+	in two places.

+<A NAME="libtiff"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:</B></A>
+<UL>
+<li> tif_fax3.c: keep rw_mode flag internal to fax3 state to remember
+	whether we are encoding or decoding.  This is to ensure graceful
+	recovery if TIFFClientOpen() discovers an attempt to open a compressed
+	file for "r+" access, and subsequently close it, as it resets the
+	tif_mode flag to O_RDONLY in this case to avoid writes, confusing the
+	compressor's concept of whether it is in encode or decode mode.
+<li> tif_luv.c/tiff.h/tiffio.h:
+	New version of TIFF LogLuv (SGILOG) modules contributed by Greg Ward
+	(greg@shutterfly.com).  He writes:
+<ol>
+	<li> I improved the gamut-mapping function in tif_luv.c for imaginary
+	colors, because some images were being super-saturated on the input
+	side and this resulted in some strange color shifts in the output.
+	<li> I added a psuedotag in tiff.h to control random dithering during
+	LogLuv encoding.  This is turned off by default for 32-bit LogLuv and
+	on for 24-bit LogLuv output.  Dithering improves the average color
+	accuracy over the image.
+	<li> I added a #define for LOG_LUV_PUBLIC, which is enabled by default in
+	tiffio.h, to expose internal routines for converting between LogLuv and
+	XYZ coordinates.  This is helpful for writing more efficient,
+	specialized conversion routines, especially for reading LogLuv files.
+</ol>
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: don't declare tiffFieldInfo static on VMS.
+<li> Added TIFFTAG_COPYRIGHT support.
+<li> tif_getimage.c: Added support for 16bit minisblack/miniswhite
+	images in RGBA interface.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: removed duplicate TIFFTAG_PHOTOSHOP as per
+	bug 44.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirwrite.c: Added support for TIFF_VARIABLE2 in the
+	case of writing TIFF_BYTE/TIFF_SBYTE fields as per bug 43.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: Modified the TIFF_BYTE definition for
+	TIFFTAG_PHOTOSHOP to use a writecount of TIFF_VARIABLE2 (-3) to
+	force use of uint32 counts instead of short counts.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: moved pixar and copyright flags to
+	ensure everything is in order.
+<li> Integrated experimental OJPEG support from Scott Marovich of HP.
+<li> libtiff/tif_open.c: Seek back to zero after failed read,
+	before writing header.
+<li> libtiff/tiff.h, libtiff/tif_fax3.c: added check for __LP64__
+	when checking for 64 bit architectures as per bugzilla bug 67.
+<li> libtiff/tif_getimage.c: Use memmove() instead of TIFFmemcpy()
+	in TIFFReadRGBATile() to avoid issues in cases of overlapping
+	buffers.  See Bug 69 in Bugzilla.
+<li> libtiff/tif_getimage.c: Don't complain for CMYK (separated)
+	images with more than four samples per pixel as per bug 73.
+<li> libtiff/tif_getimage.c: relax handling of contig case where
+there are extra samples that are supposed to be ignored as per bug 75.  This
+should now work for 8bit greyscale or palletted images.
+<li> libtiff/tif_packbits.c: fixed memory overrun error as per bug 77.
+<li> libtiff/tif_getimage.c: Fixed problem with reading strips or
+tiles that don't start on a tile boundary.  Fix contributed by
+Josep Vallverdu (from HP), and further described in bug 47.
+<li> libtif/tif_fax3.c: Removed #ifdef PURIFY logic, and modified to
+	always use the "safe" version, even if there is a very slight
+	cost in performance as per bug 54.
+<li> libtiff/tif_lzw.c: added dummy LZWSetupEncode() to report an
+	error about LZW not being available.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dir.c: propagate failure to initialize compression
+	back from TIFFSetField() as an error status, so applications can
+	detect failure.
+<li> libtiff/tif_lzw.c: Avoid MS VC++ 5.0 optimization bug as per bug 78.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirwrite.c: added TIFFRewriteDirectory() function.
+Updated TIFFWriteDirectory man page to include TIFFRewriteDirectory.
+<li> libtiff/tiff.h: I have created COMPRESSION_CCITT_T4,
+	COMPRESSION_CCITT_T6, TIFFTAG_T4OPTIONS and TIFFTAG_T6OPTIONS aliases
+	in keeping with TIFF 6.0 standard in tiff.h as per bug 83.
+<li> Added PHOTOMETRIC_ITULAB as per bug 90.

+<li> Brent Roman contributed updated tiffcp utility (and tiffcp.1)
+	with support for extracting subimages with the ,n syntax, and also
+	adding the -b bias removal flag.
+<li> tiff2ps.c/tiff2ps.1: Substantial changes to tiff2ps by
+	Bruce A. Mallett, including a faster encoder, fixes for level
+	2 PostScript, and support for the imagemask operator.
+<li> fax2ps.c: Helge (libtiff at oldach.net) submitted fix
+that corrects behaviour for non-Letter paper
+sizes. (Bug 35) It fixes two problems:
+<br>
+	Without	scaling (-S) the fax is now centered on the page size specified
+	with -H	and/or -W. Before, fax2ps was using an obscure and practially
+	useless algorithm to allocate the image relative to Letter sized paper
+	which sometime sled to useless whitespace on the paper, while at the
+	same time cutting of the faxes printable area at the opposite border.
+<br>
+	Second, scaling now preserves aspect ratio, which makes unusual faxes
+	(in particular short ones) print properly.
+<li> thumbnail.c: changed default output compression
+	to packbits from LZW since LZW isn't generally available.
+<li> tiff2rgba.c: added -n flag to avoid emitting alpha component. Also added
+a man page for tiff2rgba.
+<li> tiffcmp.c: Fixed multi samples per pixel support for ContigCompare
+as per bug 53.
+Updated bug section of tiffcmp.1 to note tiled file issues.
+<li> libtiff/tif_getimage.c: Fixed so that failure is properly
+	reported by gtTileContig, gtStripContig, gtTileSeparate and
+	gtStripSeparate as per bug 51.

+	libtiff-lzw-compression-kit over the one in the libtiff directory.
+	<LI> Some changes were made to make recovery from failure to

+<h3>Custom Tag Support</h3>
+The approach to extending libtiff with custom tags has changed radically.
+Previously, all internally supported TIFF tags had a place in the
+private TIFFDirectory structure within libtiff to hold the values (if read),
+and a "field number" (ie. FIELD_SUBFILETYPE) used to identify that tag.
+However, every time a new tag was added to the core, the size of the
+TIFFDirectory structure would changing, breaking any dynamically linked
+software that used the private data structures.<p>
+Also, any tag not recognised
+by libtiff would not be read and accessable to applications without some
+fairly complicated work on the applications part to pre-register the tags
+as exemplified by the support for "Geo"TIFF tags by libgeotiff layered on
+libtiff.  <p>
+Amoung other things this approach required the extension code
+to access the private libtiff structures ... which made the higher level
+non-libtiff code be locked into a specific version of libtiff at compile time.
+This caused no end of bug reports!<p>
+The new approach is for libtiff to read all tags from TIFF files.  Those that
+aren't recognised as "core tags" (those having an associated FIELD_ value,
+and place for storage in the TIFFDirectory structure) are now read into a
+dynamic list of extra tags (td_customValues in TIFFDirectory).  When a new
+tag code is encountered for the first time in a given TIFF file, a new
+anonymous tag definition is created for the tag in the tag definition list.
+The type, and some other metadata is worked out from the instance encountered.
+These fields are known as "custom tags".  <p>
+Custom tags can be set and fetched normally using TIFFSetField() and
+TIFFGetField(), and appear pretty much like normal tags to application code.
+However, they have no impact on internal libtiff processing (such as
+compression).  Some utilities, such as tiffcp will now copy these custom
+tags to the new output files. <p>
+As well as the internal work with custom tags, new C API entry points
+were added so that extension libraries, such as libgeotiff, could
+define new tags more easily without accessing internal data structures.
+Because tag handling of extension tags is done via the "custom fields"
+mechanism as well, the definition provided externally mostly serves to provide
+a meaningful name for the tag.
+The addition of "custom tags" and the altered approach to extending libtiff
+with externally defined tags is the primary reason for the shift to the
+3.6.x version number from 3.5.x.<p>

+<li> libtiff/tif_fax3.c: Fix wrong line numbering.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Check field counter against number of fields.
+<li> Store a list of opened IFD to prevent directory looping.
+<li> libtiff/tif_jpeg.c: modified segment_height calculation to always
+be a full height tile for tiled images.  Also changed error to just
+be a warning.
+<li> libtiff/tif_lzw.c: fixed so that decoder state isn't allocated till
+LZWSetupDecode().  Needed to read LZW files in "r+" mode.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dir.c: fixed up the tif_postdecode settings responsible
+for byte swapping complex image data.
+<li> libtiff/tif_open.c: Removed error if opening a compressed file
+in update mode bug (198).
+<li> libtiff/tif_write.c: TIFFWriteCheck() now fails if the image is
+a pre-existing compressed image.  That is, image writing to pre-existing
+compressed images is not allowed.
+<li> html/man/*.html: Web pages regenerated from man pages.
+<li> libtiff/tif_jpeg.c: Hack to ensure that "boolean" is defined properly
+on Windows so as to avoid the structure size mismatch error from libjpeg
+(bug 188).
+<li> libtiff/tiff.h: #ifdef USING_VISUALAGE around previous Visual Age
+AIX porting hack as it screwed up gcc. (bug 39)
+<li> libtiff/tiff.h: added COMPRESSION_JP2000 (34712) for LEAD tools
+custom compression.
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Another fix for the fetching SBYTE arrays
+by the TIFFFetchByteArray() function. (bug 52)
+<li> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Expand v[2] to v[4] in TIFFFetchShortPair()
+as per bug 196.
+<li> libtiff/tif_lzw.c: Additional consistency checking added in
+LZWDecode() and LZWDecodeCompat() fixing bugs 190 and 100.
+<li> libtiff/tif_lzw.c: Added check for valid code lengths in LZWDecode()
+and LZWDecodeCompat(). Fixes bug 115.
+<li> tif_getimage.c: Ensure that TIFFRGBAImageBegin() returns the
+return code from the underlying pick function as per bug 177.
+<li> libtiff/{tif_jpeg.c,tif_strip.c,tif_print.c}: Hacked tif_jpeg.c to
+fetch TIFFTAG_YCBCRSUBSAMPLING from the jpeg data stream if it isn't
+present in the tiff tags as per bug 168.
+<li> libtiff/tif_jpeg.c: Fixed problem with setting of nrows in
+JPEGDecode() as per bug 129.
+<li> libtiff/tif_read.c, libtiff/tif_write.c: TIFFReadScanline() and
+TIFFWriteScanline() now set tif_row explicitly in case the codec has
+fooled with the value as per bug 129.
+<li> libtiff/tif_ojpeg.c: Major upgrade from Scott.  Details in bug 156.
+<li>  libtiff/tif_open.c: Pointers to custom procedures
+in TIFFClientOpen() are checked to be not NULL-pointers.
+<li> libtiff/tif_lzw.c: Assertions in LZWDecode and LZWDecodeCompat
+replaced by warnings. Now libtiff should read corrupted LZW-compressed
+files by skipping bad strips as per bug 100.
+<li> libtiff/: tif_dirwrite.c, tif_write.c, tiffio.h:
+<a href=./man/TIFFWriteDirectory.3t.html>TIFFCheckpointDirectory()</a>
+routine added as per bug 124.  The
+<a href=./man/TIFFWriteDirectory.3t.html>TIFFWriteDirectory</a>
+man page discusses this new function as well as the related
+<a href=./man/TIFFWriteDirectory.3t.html>TIFFRewriteDirectory()</a>.
+<li> libtiff/: tif_codec.c, tif_compress.c, tiffiop.h, tif_getimage.c:
+Introduced
+additional members tif->tif_decodestatus and tif->tif_encodestatus
+for correct handling of unconfigured codecs (we should not try to read
+data or to define data size without correct codecs). See bug 119.
+<li> tif_dirread.c: avoid div-by-zero if rowbytes is zero in chop func as
+per bug 111.
+<li> libtiff/: tiff.h, tif_dir.c, tif_dir.h, tif_dirinfo.c, tif_dirread.c,
+tif_dirwrite.c: Dwight Kelly added get/put code for new tag XMLPACKET as
+defined in Adobe XMP Technote. Added missing INKSET tag value from TIFF 6.0
+spec INKSET_MULTIINK (=2). Added missing tags from Adobe TIFF technotes:
+CLIPPATH, XCLIPPATHUNITS, YCLIPPATHUNITS, OPIIMAGEID, OPIPROXY and
+INDEXED. Added PHOTOMETRIC tag value from TIFF technote 4 ICCLAB (=9).
+<li> libtiff/tif_getimage.c: Additional check for supported codecs added in
+TIFFRGBAImageOK, TIFFReadRGBAImage, TIFFReadRGBAStrip and TIFFReadRGBATile now
+use TIFFRGBAImageOK before reading a per bug 110.
+<li> libtiff/: tif_dir.c, tif_dir.h, tif_dirinfo.c, tif_dirread.c,
+tif_dirwrite.c: Added routine
+<a href=./man/TIFFDataWidth.3t.html>TIFFDataWidth</a> for determining
+TIFFDataType sizes instead of working with tiffDataWidth array
+directly as per bug 109.
+<li>libtiff/: tif_dirinfo.c, tif_dirwrite.c: Added possibility to
+read broken TIFFs with LONG type used for TIFFTAG_COMPRESSION,
+TIFFTAG_BITSPERSAMPLE, TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC as per bug 99.
+<li> libtiff/{tiff.h,tif_fax3.c}: Add support for __arch64__ as per bug 94.
+<li> libtiff/tif_read.c: Fixed TIFFReadEncodedStrip() to fail if the
+decodestrip function returns anything not greater than zero as per bug 97.
+<li> libtiff/tif_jpeg.c: fixed computation of segment_width for
+tiles files to avoid error about it not matching the
+cinfo.d.image_width values ("JPEGPreDecode: Improper JPEG strip/tile
+size.") for ITIFF files.  Apparently the problem was incorporated since
+3.5.5, presumably during the OJPEG/JPEG work recently.
+<li> libtiff/tif_getimage.c: If DEFAULT_EXTRASAMPLE_AS_ALPHA is 1
+(defined in tiffconf.h - 1 by default) then the RGBA interface
+will assume that a fourth extra sample is ASSOCALPHA if the
+EXTRASAMPLE value isn't set for it.  This changes the behaviour of
+the library, but makes it work better with RGBA files produced by
+lots of applications that don't mark the alpha values properly.
+As per bugs 93 and 65.
+<li> libtiff/tif_jpeg.c: allow jpeg data stream sampling values to
+override those from tiff directory.  This makes this work with
+ImageGear generated files.
