Hi I get a similar error using gdalwarp on karmic beta (also in jaunty), both the 64 bit version (32 bit version is working fine).
Running: $ gdalwarp -t_srs '+proj=utm +zone=33 +datum=WGS84' -srcnodata -3000 -dstnodata -10000 "HDF4_EOS:EOS_GRID:MOD13Q1.A2006161.h21v13.005.2008234103220.hdf:MODIS_Grid_16DAY_250m_500m_VI:250m 16 days NDVI" out.tif Produces this error: Creating output file that is 3531P x 5798L.
