--- Comment #2 from Dmitry Kazakov <dimul...@gmail.com> ---
According to the TIFF standard, this compression mode is defined for 1
bit-per-pixel images only. So I think we should just remove this option
(alongside other two "fax" options).


=== Snip from the standard ===

2 =  CCITT Group  3 1-Dimensional  Modified  Huffman  run  length
encoding.   See Appendix  B:   "Data Compression  --  Scheme  2."
BitsPerSample must  be 1,  since  this  type  of  compression  is
defined only for bilevel images.

     When  you  decompress  data  that  has  been  compressed  by
Compression=2, you  must translate  white runs into 0's and black
runs into  1's.   Therefore, the normal PhotometricInterpretation
for those  compression types  is 0  (WhiteIsZero).   If a  reader
encounters a  PhotometricInterpretation of  1  (BlackIsZero)  for
such an  image, the  image should  be displayed  and printed with
black and white reversed.
