Thanks George, I thought that the MythVideo gallery view used code from
gallery, and therefore, if I excluded gallery, that view would be messed
up. Thanks for the clarification.

I'm going to remove libtiff from osx-packager.pl and re-run the entire
build from scratch, see what happens...

Well, it did compile just fine, the problem now is I don't have an SVN
build to test against. If your concerns are accurate, then it's
probably not a good idea anyway as these builds get downloaded by many
people, I'd want them as stable as possible.
Thanks for the help.
