Updating xloadimage to libtiff5



Hi,

I have prepared xloadimage for upload to assume maintainership for it,
and the PTS tells me I should prepare it for the libtiff5 transition.

My understanding is that I should make it build against libtiff5 rather
than libtiff4, and that is what I did. My understanding is that this
will bring forward the transition.

However, my sponsor says that the libtiff5 transition means that I must
under no circumstances upload any changes that deal with libtiff.

Could you please explain to me what is the correct way of dealing with
the libtiff5 transition?

Cheers,
Nik
