Look at the output of "listgeo" with your geoTIFF's and with an
example geoTIFF from my site:

    http://wetnet.net/~we7u/xastir/libgeotiff/

If the types of numbers you get out of each look similar, you might
have a chance.  If not, you'll have to massage the geoTIFF to look
more like a USGS geoTIFF by stripping off the geotiff tags and
adding new ones.
