To reproduce, simply start tiffinfo.exe. It crashes, though gdalinfo works ok.

I have rebuilt the libtiff dll package with VC7.1 which did not use manifests and this made it so that the tiffinfo.exe binary works again.

It seems that any DLL built using manifests and depending on manifest oriented runtimes requires that the .exe also be built with manifests.

This is in place now, but I hope to do some investigation of a way forward that does not depend on ancient compiler versions.
