My tests mainly consisted in checking that GDAL would compile and link 
successfully with various combinations of the configure options.

With the renaming options enabled, I did a "objdump -t libgdal.so | awk 
'{print $6}' | grep TIFF | grep -v TIFFjpeg_ | grep -v aig_ | grep -v gdal_ | 
sort -u" to ensure that all the symbols that should be renamed are. You will 
notice a few remaining occurrences but I think they are safe.

Also, when the renaming options where enabled, I added -ltiff -lgeotiff to the 
gdalinfo linking line, before or after -lgdal, and tested the executable on a 
few files.

Yes indeed, I had CC'ed Julien Malik who is affiliated with the OTB project in 
my announcement email.
