As for the 64k limit, I think it's reasonably easy to fix it for sequential access but perhaps not so easy for functions like TIFFSetDirectory() because of the ABI. Whether we should fix the former only and how we could

It would be necessary to add a new typedef (similar to tdir_t) and functions for dealing with the larger directory ids.
