(I hope its the correct address for bug reports.)

Hello,

I just tried to compile TIFF 3.30beta I got from sgi.com and it doesn't compile because of a mismatch between:

% gcc -g -I. -c tif_write.c
tif_write.c:565: conflicting types for `TIFFSetWriteOffset'
tiffio.h:182: previous declaration of `TIFFSetWriteOffset'

After examination, it appears the following line in tif_write.c:

TIFFSetWriteOffset(TIFF* tif, off_t off)

should be changed to:

TIFFSetWriteOffset(TIFF* tif, toff_t off)

Here is the context diff:
