Chris,

I've tested with current beta of LibTiff 4. Low-level LibTiff 
(TIFFReadEncodedXxx) does not get into trouble. However, the LibTiff RGBA 
interface does crash and burn, access violation style, even in version 4.0. 
At first examination, there's nothing that much out of the ordinary to this 
image, except that the two channels (MinIsBlack grayscale channel and the 
pre-calculated alpha channel) are stored planar, not chunky (in LibTiff 
speak, the tag TIFFTAG_PLANARCONFIG has the value PLANARCONFIG_SEPARATE) 
which is not all that common but certainly is perfectly legit.

I recommend adding a bugzilla report.


Best regards,

Joris
