It's probably easy to introduce unless we build with the extra -Wstrict-aliasing=2 compiler?

I am not familiar with that one yet.

The libtiff from CVS branch-3-9 (which would be 3.9.2) produces no aliasing warnings from the library, and just a few warnings about uninitialized variables in some of the utilities.

Sorry, I had somehow mistakenly thought that we were looking at a 4.0 release. :embarrassed:

To clarify, I expect to cut a release from both HEAD and branch-3-9, but the HEAD release would be just another beta. It is not fair doing one without the other and they both include similar improvements.

I'm not sure if this is directed to me in particular. I had not checked in the first place since my usual development platform is on Win64. I trust your results are correct. :)

I did see a couple of bug reports about warnings under Win64 and think they are still open. Since I don't have it, I don't test on it.
