CMake build is now included in 'distcheck' target.
Builds with CMake 2.8.9 and newer.
Tar is now resquested to use POSIX PAX format.

CMake reads all version information directly from configure.ac to
avoid duplication of values. This basically greps over the file
for the LIBTIFF_* variables, then translates them to the form
needed for cmake. This includes the release version and libtool
shared library version information.
Make shared/static library building configurable. Currently it
always builds shared libraries, with static libs having a _static
suffix (copying zlib, but it means it's got a non-standard name).
CMake has a -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON|OFF option to select one or the
other, which is now used instead. There's now a single "tiff"
target to build either shared or static as required, and all the
tests and tools are linked with this. Note: the Windows tests fail
when linked with a static libtiff (says: libtiff.dll not found).
Not really a regression since this was not tested up to this
point, and it's likely the unit tests haven't (ever?) been run on
Windows with a static libtiff, so there's some additional
portability issue here to address. Works fine on UNIX systems,
and fine on Windows with the default to build a DLL.
Add a missing file which wasn't being distributed, causing unit
tests to fail. Note that "find . -name '*.cmake'" lists all the
CMake files which need distributing in addition to all the
CMakeLists.txt files (which now are distributed).

libtiff mailing list on Mon, 22 Jun 2015 21:21:01 +0100. Several
corrections to ensure that the autotools build still works were
added by me. I have not yet tested the build using 'cmake' or
MSVC with 'nmake'.
