[Gdal-dev] Use of assert() on troublesome files

[Ben Discoe]

I was trying to read it with GDALOpen, but i can demonstrate the problem
from the command-line as well.  This is with GDAL 1.2.0a (a few days ago) on
Windows XP:

> gdalwarp kaena_pt.tif kaena_pt2.tif
Warning 1: TIFFReadDirectory:kaena_pt.tif: wrong data type 1 for
"XMLPacket"; tag ignored
Creating output file is that 5371P x 3251L.
Warning 1: TIFFReadDirectory:kaena_pt.tif: wrong data type 1 for
"XMLPacket"; tag ignored
ERROR 1: JPEGLib:JPEG parameter struct mismatch: library thinks size is 464,
caller expects 432
Assertion failed: sp->cinfo.comm.is_decompressor, file tif_jpeg.c, line 606

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
