+
+<UL>
+ <li> libtiff/{tif_luv.c, tif_next.c, tif_thunder.c}: Several buffer
+ overruns fixed, as noted by Chris Evans.
+
+ <li> BSD data types (u_char, u_short, u_int, u_long) is no longer
+ used internally in the libtiff. Should result in simpler configuration
+ and better portability.
+
+ <li> libtiff/tiff.h: Fix column tagging. Reference current Adobe XMP
+ specification. Reference libtiff bug tracking system to submit
+ private tag additions.
+
+ <li> libtiff/tif_dirread.c: Don't reject to read tags of the
+ SamplesPerPixel size when the tag count is greater than number of
+ samples as per bug
+ <A HREF="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576</A>.
+
+ <li> libtiff/{tiffio.h, tif_open.c}: Applied patches from
+ Joris Van Damme to avoid requirement for tiffiop.h inclusion in
+ some applications. Look for details here:
+ <A HREF="http://www.asmail.be/msg0054799560.html">
+ http://www.asmail.be/msg0054799560.html</A>.
+
+ <li> libtiff/{tiffiop.h, tif_dirinfo.c}: Fixed problem with the static
+ variable as per bug
+ <A HREF="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593">
+ http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593</A>.
+
+ <li> libtiff/tif_lzw.c: LZW compression code is merged back from the
+ separate package. All libtiff tools are updated to not advertise an
+ abcence of LZW support.
+
+ <li> libtiff/tif_dir.c: Call TIFFError() instead of producing warnings
+ when setting custom tags by value. Reported by Eric Fieleke.
