Libtiff has had many such bugs in the past.  They have to do with 
errors in the TIFF directory reading code (libtiff bug).  This same 
bug bit me before.  It is related to the big-endian CPU rather than 
64-bit compilation.  The easiest solution is to upgrade your libtiff 
to a version without the bug.
