Hi Andrey.
Just one minor compilation problem I've had with the new release. If building in a sub-directory (i.e. for different OS), then the compiler is unable to find the 'libtiff/port.h' file. This is because the 'tools/Makefile' file doesn't include a reference to the directory in which the 'port.h' file was created (i.e. in the sub-directory).
e.g.
cd tiff-v3.6.0
mkdir obj
cd obj
../configure
--> port.h is created in new libtiff directory (i.e. under the
'obj' directory)
make
...
/opt/sfw/bin/gcc -c -g -O -I. -I../../../tools -I../../../libtiff ../../../tools/tiffset.c

make: *** [all] Error 2
If the compile line however is:
/opt/sfw/bin/gcc -c -g -O -I. -I../libtiff -I../../../tools -I../../../libtiff ../../../tools/tiffset.c
then it builds okay (under solaris, linux and a cross-development linux system at least).
The following 'diff -u' output seems to fix the problem:
