This was the main culprit. When I use tiff 4.0.1, Gimp will no longer open tiff files complaining that it was unable to read the header. This is true (for me) on both Windows 32 and 64 bit. So, I rebuilt tiff 3.9.4, which created libtiff-3.dll and Gimp can open tiff files now. However, it breaks Ghostscript and so I reverted your changes and went back to loading an external program to load PS files. I wonder why tiff 4.0.1 is failing on my builds. Has anyone tested tiff 4.0.1 on a Linux machine to confirm this? Thanks for all your help Mukund. It really helped me with this problem.
