Both the lzw issues and other bugs have been addressed in the 3.7.0 ebuild.  How 
about trying that one instead?  you can add "media-libs/tiff ~x86" to your 
packages.keywords to emerge.

If you have a compelling requirement for a 3.6.1 fix then I'll take a look; 
otherwise, I'm swamped (it's not a huge deal, is it?).

See http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/v3.7.0.html

No, it's not. It's minor, so don't worry about it. ;)

Here's a patch that adds a lzw-tiff? to the SRC_URI for that file.

Thanks for the patch; if anyone needs to patch 3.6.x then I recommend doing in 
your portage overlay using the above patch.

Otherwise, I highly encourage everyone to try the 3.7.0 tiff ebuild.  I've had 
several independent reports from Hylafax users that it works very smoothly now 
(and fixes several different problems).  I'd like to get this marked stable so 
if you can, please try it and report back any bugs.
