many :)
I don't know where PIL stands on TIFF, but almost all C-based libraries 
rely on libtiff package in the end. Depending on how it is compiled you 
will get different results for TIFFs with nonstandard tags (which is 
probably your case). If you are willing to tinker you can recompile wx's 
version of libtiff. Also, how about reporting to the PIL people? G4 is 
the most popular tiff codec, they would want to know if it's broken. 
What are you doing with all those tiffs anyway?
BTW, you did a nice job obfuscating your email, but it is plaintext in 
the header - you have to reconfigure you mailer to hide it...
