Why make it so complex?

I have never seen x/y resolution defined with decimals.

Therefore: storing 200.0 as something else than 200/1 seems stupid, and makes it more difficult to "debug" tiff files.

I would add this simple test to TIFFWriteRationalArray()

    if (fv == (float)((int)fv)) {
        t[2*i+0] = (int)fv;
        t[2*i+1] = 1L;
    } else {
        ...
    }

and ask Niles Ritter to improve the complex method of writing a rational.
