You should tell us os and HylaFAX versions.

HylaFAX may have some problems detecting the libtiff version or
compiling the test program without help.

For instance, to get it right on a caldera1.x box I have to use
--with-LIBTIFF="-ltiff -ljpeg -lz -lm"

So, knowing your os will help.
If you are desperate just edit "configure" to skip the tiff test :-)

Anyway, the test program is this

==
#include "tiffio.h"
main()
{
    printf( "header_ver=%d lib_ver=%s", TIFFLIB_VERSION,
TIFFGetVersion() );
    exit(0);
}
===

Can you compile it succesfully by hand? Which -llibs you have to use?
