Kirk,

This would appear to mean that the "geo" portion of the geotiff info in
the file in question is corrupt.  It may actually be the file, or it might
be that the geotiff library was built improperly somehow.  Can you make
the DRG file available somewhere I could download it and check it myself?

Best regards,
