I am using gcc v3.3.3, Solaris 8 & libtiff v3.5.7. I realize 3.7.3 is the latest, but upgrading to the latest libraries a few weeks before a release is not advisable unless absolutely necessary. Besides, I can't beleive I am the only one to try libtiff in 64-bit mode on GNU.

I use libtiff 3.7.3 compiled as 64-bits under Solaris 9 using GCC 4.0.1. There are some warnings during compilation, but the library seems to work correctly anyway.

I don't recommend that anyone use libtiff v3.5.7 if they have the option to use 3.7.3 since 3.7.3 is more portable, more modern, and fixes many bugs.
