Thanks for the log.  The question is whether libtiff.lib is chosen over
libtiff.dll.a.  Please pack the output of

cd /c/msys/1.0/home/MyLIB/libtiff/tools
/bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc  -g -O2 -Wall -W \
   -L/c/msys/1.0/local/lib  -o bmp2tiff.exe bmp2tiff.o \
   ../libtiff/libtiff.la ../port/libport.la -ljpeg

with bzip2 or gzip and post it.

As a workaround, you could try configuring with --disable-static added,
but please do the above anyway, I would like to get to the bottom of
this for once.

Probably the func_win32_libid function isn't smart enough or so, but I
can't tell that yet.

Thanks,
