FYI, I patched the tags in my test file (from
https://aviationtoolbox.org/Members/...ul_Y=-676347.0)
with geotifcp per J.G.'s instructions, and Oziexplorer is happy with that
image now. Do you know if changing your generation code would be
appropriate, and/or cause other problems with other software?

It's appropriate and I want to do it. If it causes any problems, I'll
work through them. I want these things to be correct.

Yesterday I distilled the code to a few lines that demonstrate the
problem and sent a report to the GDAL developer mailing list.
http://remotesensing.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev/
It hasn't appeared in the archives yet.

I welcome more reports to the list. My trivial example is below.

Thank you.
