Bruce,

I think it should be safe for more than one thread to use libtiff as long
as they are accessing different files.  This assumes that the underlying
libc is thread safe of course.  Does anyone know otherwise?

A DLL, and import library is available from:

  ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/libtiff_bin_354.zip
