Stephen,
Cool, thanks for the fixes! I checked them, applied them in CVS and verified
they corrected the problem. No more crash in TABFile::Open().

The .TAB file is of "TYPE SHAPEFILE" (look in the .tab file to see this).
This means the tab file is just referring to an external file that is in
shapefile format. In this case it seems you only sent the .dbf part of
the shapefile set ... perhaps that is all there is. Anyways, MITAB only
support "Type NATIVE" as far as I know. Support for non-mapinfo formats
is out of scope.
I am cc:ing the mitab mailing list in case anyone else has any observations to
make on this.
For the list, the .TAB file containes (hopefully nothing sensitive):
!table
!version 700
!charset WindowsLatin1
Definition Table
Type SHAPEFILE Charset "WindowsLatin1"
Fields 4
Id Char (10) ;
Easting Char (10) ;
E Float ;
N Float ;
