72	<li> libtiff/{tif_dirread.c, tif_jpeg.c, tif_luv.c, tif_ojpeg.c,
73	tif_pixarlog.c, tif_write.c}: Handle the zero strip/tile sizes
74	properly (Dmitry V. Levin, Marcus Meissner).
75
76	<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: Type of the TIFFTAG_SUBIFD field changed
77	to TIFF_IFD.
78
79	<li> Preliminary support for BigTIFF files: now libtiff can
80	recognize and reject to open such images. ;-)
81
82	<li> libtiff/tif_dir.c: Initialize td_tilewidth and td_tilelength fields
83	of the TIFFDirectory structure with the 0 instead of -1 to avoid
84	confusing integer overflows in TIFFTileRowSize() for striped images.
85
86	<li> libtiff/tif_dir.c: Initialize td_tilewidth and td_tilelength fields
87	of the TIFFDirectory structure with the 0 instead of -1 to avoid
88	confusing integer overflows in TIFFTileRowSize() for striped images.
89
90	<li> libtiff/tif_dirinfo.c: Fix bug with tif_foundfield and reallocation
91	of tif_fieldinfo as per bug
