    Starting with 3.3beta21 the `strtoul' library call is being used.
    My host however doesn't have support for this call.
    
        Host:       Sun 3/50; SUNOS 4.1.1_U1
        Compiler:   gcc 2.6.0
        
    Is my host becoming obsolete?

It's ANSI C; you can decide whether or not your machine is outdated :-)
    
    
    Starting with version 3.3beta15 `tiffcp' behaves differently from
    previous versions!
    
    I used to use `tiffcp' to convert multiple strip TIFF files into single 
    strip TIFF files. For this to work I used:
    
            tiffcp src1 .. srcN dst
    
    This worked like a charm. But this doesn't work anymore. :-(

What happens now?
    
    I now have to use:
    
            tiffcp -rowsperstrip <large number> src1 .. srcN dst
    
    where <large number> is equal to the Image Length.
     
    In the source code I couldn't detect any significant change.
    What's going on?
    
All that I can think of is that I fixed a bug where tiffcp wasn't
recognizing when rows/strip wasn't set on the command line.  The
intended behaviour is that when rows/strip is not set on the command
line, then tiffcp will set it up so that each row is ~8Kbytes.  If
you want something else then you've gotta specify the command line
option.  I believe this is in the manual page.
