Sounds like this pre-compiled binary is 32bit only.  You can check with
the 'lipo' command (see its man page).

These warnings are well known (to me anyway).  They are in the libtiff
code itself, someone should file a bug with them.  You don't see the
warnings on any VTK dashboard because warnings are suppressed for 3rd
party code.

Maybe try the java wrappings first?  Java is 32/64 on Mac OS X.
