David,

It is an information debug message, not an error.  It indicates that
the GeoTIFF driver is being cleaned up - presumably in msCleanup().
While it isn't particularly valuable to know about this specific driver
I have left it in as a marker that more general cleanup is occuring.

GDAL debug output is controlled by the CPL_DEBUG environment variable
which I imagine you have turned on.

Best regards,
