This does seem like a problem, particularly if the extra bits are actually used. I don't believe that libtiff has been ported to 64-bit Windows even though it mostly works ok for 64-bit Unix systems. 64-bit Windows is strange since 'long' is still 32-bits. Since this seems like a new area for libtiff, I recommend using the 4.0.0beta2 preliminary release, or libtiff CVS, so that it is easier to formulate and test fixes. Old releases are never fixed.
