Submitted by: "Louis A. Mamakos" <louie@TransSys.COM>
installs the version of the port that uses shared library number 9 and the
LIBRARY_VERSION set to the default. Normally this is against our policy
(bumping the version number for minor things), however due to the major
problems caused with the upgrade, Satoshi and I decided that this was best.
Approved by: asami
<rhwang@bigpanda.com> and Mikhail Teterin <mi@aldan.ziplink.net>.
Thomas Gellekum <thomas@ghpc8.ihf.rwth-aachen.de> and I merged these
ports and modified it.
TIFF 3.4 does not seem to be completely compatible with tiff 3.3, so
we decided to make separate port for this version.
Special thanks goes to tg, for reviewing and intensively testing.
