Your tiff warning is due to the fact that your tiff contains multiple tiff files. For the others in this list, the repeated warnings are: "TIFF library warning tiff module: TIFFReadDirectory" I'm sure that your tiffs are created from a DSLR (a canon or nikon?) either directly, or via the RAW convertor delivered with your camera. If you open such a tiff in OSX Preview you will see that it has 2 images. A full resolution 16bit tiff, most probably with an alpha-mask, and a small preview tiff. Programs that do support this can load the small preview fast and display the large tiff a bit later, or show it as a preview in a file manager or thumbs gallery. The library automatically loads the big (default) image from the tiff and not the preview. If have seen this also with enfuse often. Enfuse can't handle these tiffs and crashes on it. I had to write a patch for my ImageFuser(1) program to overcome that behavior from enfuse. Even more: I think that the only reason that hugin does not crash (on all platforms) when having to handle these kind of tiffs in stacked panos, is because nona (and align_image_stack) are not that intelligent and just grab the first image in the tiff that they encounter. And then they deliver a single (cropped) tiff to enfuse and enblend which than can handle these new intermediate "single tiff" images. Please let me know whether I'm correct in my analysis of the tiff behavior.
