Bernhard, et. al.: As far as I know, the r.in.tiff changes are working
fine.  I last tested the module against grey, palette and truecolor
tiffs and it worked fine.  The main problem with the module was its
attempt to do color reduction on true color images, and trying to
allocate a huge amount of memory on the stack.  I had one other person
report that the changes worked for them as well.

The only other change I have in CVS that should probably get into a
release is the src/libes/edit/edit_cellhd.c fix, where a function
definition said it returned a double, but it didn't return anything.
I changed it to the appropriate "void" type and modified some 
initialization/declaration expressions that were order dependent
(though, they shouldn't have been a problem).  I think this was the
cause of the gcc-2.96 compiler bug failure.  I can't test it though to
see if the problem disappeared (I only have gcc-2.95 and gcc-3.1).
