MAJOR CHANGES:
	-  Read-only support for custom directories (e.g. EXIF directory).
	
-  Preliminary support for MS MDI format.
CHANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:
	-  Make the default strip size configurable via the
	--with-default-strip-size and STRIP_SIZE_DEFAULT options.
CHANGES IN LIBTIFF:
	-  tiffio.h: Added VC_EXTRALEAN definition before including
	windows.h, to reduce the compile time.
	
-  tif_jpeg.c: Improve compilation under MinGW.
	
-  {tif_aux.c, tif_dir.c, tif_dir.h, tif_dirwrite.c,
	tif_print.c, tif_getimage.c}: Make InkSet, NumberOfInks, DotRange and
	StoNits tags custom.
	
-  {tif_aux.c, tif_dir.c, tif_dir.h, tif_print.c}: Make
	WhitePoint tag custom.
	
-  tiffio.h: fixed typo that potentially resulted in 
	redefininition of USE_WIN32_FILEIO
	
-  {tif_dir.c, tif_dir.h, tif_print.c}: Make RichTIFFIPTC,
	Photoshop and ICCProfile tags custom.
	
-  libtiff/*, contrib/*: Added 'dual-mode' error handling, enabling 
	newer code to get context indicator in error handler and still
	remain compatible with older code: Done TIFFError calls everywhere 
	except in tools.
	
-  tiffinfo.c: Print EXIF directory contents if exist.

	tif_dir.c, tif_print.c}: Make YCbCrCoefficients and ReferenceBlackWhite
	tags custom.
	
-  tif_dirread.c: One more workaround for broken StripByteCounts
	tag. Handle the case when StripByteCounts array filled with
	completely wrong values.
	
-  tif_dirinfo.c: Release file descriptor in case of failure
	in the TIFFOpenW() function as per bug

	cases (like 1x1 files with stripbytecounts==0 (gtsmall.jp2 embed tiff)
