Huh?  I have a 64 bit compilation working just fine.  Can you set up
the Forte C compiler as such:

    cc -xarch=v9 -g -xs ....

compile it and run the the tool again?  When it dumps core run dbx on
the program, and use 'where' to get a stack backtrace.

I suggest that you turn off all optimization, because sometimes opt.
tickles a bug...

Send that along with a bug report to the libtiff bubzilla system, if
the problem is indeed with libtiff.  Your program might be stomping
on memory elsewhere...
