OK, so the problem is that emacs 21.2-13 depends on libtiff4, but 22.1-3
depends on libtiff5. For now, I've added both versions of the library to
the setup.hint (since I don't know of any way to make the library
dependency version-specific), and we can change setup.hint later once
emacs 22 is promoted to current.
