I have two comments:

1) I am currently uploading version 1.2 of my jumptable libgr to
   sunsite. It has the latest JPEG and TIFF libraries needed for the
   XV program. Savings on the binary are about 250 kB.

2) Please note that Xv-3.00 is accompanied by a rather restrictive
   shareware license. It is possible to read the license-file such
   that these binary distributions could be in violation (Please
   note that I try to be careful in writing). XV-3.00 IS NOT FREE
   SOFTWARE!!!

Best regards,
