What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. configure / make / install tesseract-2.01.tar.gz with latest stable
libtiff (tesseract-2.03.tar.gz does not compile under Fedora)
2. Scan an image with a Xerox Phaser 6110 directly to .tif
3. Run tesseract on the image.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected successful completion as every other program I have ever used
works well with Xerox Phaser generated .tif files
(gimp/photoshop/firefox/ie/imagemagick/etc).
Expected error message rather than segmentation fault.
Since there is no error message I don't really know if this problem is
tesseract or libtiff. For all I know it could be an other-than-tiff
related problem.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
tesseract-2.01.tar.gz
I am running Fedora 9 (Linux deans250 2.6.25.6-55.fc9.i686 #1 SMP Tue Jun
10 16:27:49 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux).
Please provide any additional information below.
I want to help. If you don't have some piece of information please let me
know and I will see if I cannot get it to you. I wish I could attach a
vmware image exhibiting the problem as my attachment but I am sure it is
too big. I have attached a .tif instead. I do not know if it will allow
you to reproduce the problem on your OS or not.
