Heiko,

You need to force the GDAL TIFF support to be used in preference to the
built-in libtiff support in MapServer.  I would suggest reconfiguring, and
building with the --without-libtiff configure switch.  This will ensure that
TIFF files are handled through GDAL which supports reprojection.

Good luck,
