I disagree, all three issues found do seem like independent issues with
little relation (on amd64 at least).
the exif tag truncation is very unlikely cause the complete data
structure corruption.
While I think its unlikely it is possible the tag truncation patch fixes
it, I didn't test it (does it even apply to the old libtiff?)

The wrong type sizes can not be related because I tested that and it
only affects 32 bit (which I was not using for debugging).

I didn't look into much detail why the tiff plugin is so messed up, as
simply updating the debian patch solved all my problems and I could move
on to the next one (the tag truncation).
Whatever route you choose, please make sure the skimage test suite is
running afterwards.
