I have the source code from both 3.8.2 and 3.6.1, and it appears the variable is uninitialized in both versions of the code. My current desktop Linux environment uses the 3.6.1 version, so I have been performing the code changes for my own requirements in that version. I don't know how much difference exists between the 3.6 and 3.8 release sets, but I don't think it affects my current issue. I believe the features I'm developing for watermarking could be rolled into either release as well.

There is about 3 years of difference. But both of them are old now. Needless to say, fixes appear in subsequent releases, so it is best to see if the problem still exists in 3.9.0beta and 4.0.0beta1 so that it can be fixed before the next release.

What does 'tiffinfo' report for the problem files? Are you able to provide one of the problem files as a test case?
