r.in.tiff woes.

Good afternoon,

   A bug has seemed to pop up in grass now, that was not there before. I had
previously used r.in.tiff without any problems, but now am running into
Memory fault - core dumped... Somewhat puzzling. Here's what happens, even 
though identical runs used to work fine...

GRASS-GRID > r.in.tiff input=jello.tif output=blah  
Memory fault - core dumped

( d.rast blah works fine on the raster file "blah" )

GRASS-GRID> ls -l core
-rw-r--r--  1 franklin  8507824 Jun 14 14:51 core


Has anyone seen this before?

Here is the verbose output of r.in.tiff:
