I've only just joined the list, so I probably missed it.  It would be
really good if this code could be put on the web somewhere (preferably
linked from the libtiff.org page), so people can find it easily.

A question about your code: does it handle what HP describe as MTIFF --
that is, TIFF files with multiple images in them?  I'm able to recover
JPEG images from the TIFF files created by our HP 9100C Digital Sender by
stripping the first eight bytes, but only if they're single-image files.
