    50 	<li> The code has been reviewed by Dmitry Levin: added checks
       
    51 	for values, returned by the space allocation functions, fixed

    77 	<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: changed type of XMLPacket (tag 700) to

    79 	in the Adobe XMP Specification.

    81 	<li> Added many checks for integer overflow and for successful space
