A thought just occurred to me:  What version of Xastir are you
running?  Latest CVS, one of the snapshots, or the 1.1.0 release?

I made a change recently (last week?) regarding this sort of thing,
making the warning/error messages more useful, and getting around
a problem that ImageMagick was having where it wanted to exit the
program instead of issuing a warning and continuing to run.

If Xastir exited on TigerMaps, it's likely that you're _not_ running
the latest CVS version.  Correct?

I had problems with the TigerMap server today also, but I just got
a warning instead of having it crash Xastir.
