I can reproduce this problem. Writing any TIFF file will create a file that can
be opened, but GIMP complains:

unknown field with tag 11 (0xb) encountered
unknown field with tag 18246 (0x4746) encountered
unknown field with tag 18249 (0x4749) encountered
unknown field with tag 513 (0x201) encountered
unknown field with tag 514 (0x202) encountered

and shows the error messages mentioned previously.

Removing the single line that calls libexiv2 to write metadata to the newly
written TIFF file cures the problem (see second sample image).

Note that the second image has some metadata as well because digikam already
writes Xmp, Iptc and some Exif tags using libtiff directly (probably coming
from times when exiv2 couldn't do that)
