SunPro compiler. | |
<li> tif_dirwrite.c: Always write TIFFTAG_SUBIFD using LONG type | |
as per bugs | |
<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703"> | |
http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703</a> and | |

http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692</a> | |

is bad. This is the callers responsibility. | |

http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660</a> | |
<li> tif_dirinfo.c: Change definition for TIFFTAG_EXTRASAMPLES | |

choosing when the incorrect Group4Options tag set. As per bug | |
