The test image has 16 bpp.

I get same warnings on with Leptonica v1.68 on Windows XP SP3.

Incorrect. At least on Windows I build libtiff with "LZW_SUPPORT = 1"
in my nmake.opt file.
You can see the actual problem by looking at
http://tpgit.github.com/Leptonica/tiffio_8c_source.html#l00274, where
Leptonica gets the TIFFTAG_SAMPLESPERPIXEL. It allows 1, 3, or 4 but
not 2 as this image contains.
