After two posts with no immediate response you may be feeling ignored. 
:-)

Using the default configuration (using *.vc files in libtiff 
directory) I am not seeing any such problems with my own software 
which is using a slightly patched libtiff 3.8.0.

Only zackthecat.tif reports a problem with unsupported compression, 
and that is expected since it uses OJPEG format.

There may be something wrong with your libtiff build, or it may also 
be that some older libtiff (DLL) on your system is being used by 
accident.
