I'd say drop the use of assert in most places and just forget NDEBUG exists is probably the best approach for libtiff. Libraries generally shouldn't terminate their calling process without a very good reason. We can't possibly know what data loss may occur if we don't let the caller do a managed shutdown of their own stuff.
I don't think your arguments necessarily exclude the use of assert()-type mechanisms in libtiff. It just means that libtiff should have its own assert mechanism that is tailored specifically for its requirements. I like Philip Crew's idea of having a custom assert() mechanism that can be tailored (possibly at runtime?) to produce different behaviours such as generating internal errors, producing logs, etc.
