Now these are reported as:

TIFFReadDirectory: Warning, Unknown field with tag 42112 (0xa480) encountered. TIFFReadDirectory: Warning, Unknown field with tag 42113 (0xa481) encountered.

These are GDAL_METADATA and GDAL_NODATA according to:

I use geotiff 1.5.1-2 on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.

Those are defined in GDAL. If we wanted to move them down to the stack, libtiff itself would probably be a better host than libgeotiff. Actually in very recent libtiff releases, they are partially declared in it, but only for TIFFPrintDirectory(). It might be a bit tricky to move them and avoid the risk of redefinition between GDAL and libtiff
