$ tiffinfo RAW_LEICA_M8.DNG

  EXIFIFDOffset: 764

TIFF Directory at offset 0x2fc (764)
Segmentation fault

Looks like this is caused by libtiff's lack of proper EXIF support.

So is it that the older version had no support for EXIF and the latest has bad support for it which caused the old version to not crash and the latest version to crash? Is there any way I can use the latest version against files with EXIF data without it dying add/or is it likely that a minor release would come out to address this issue?
