Dan,
read my first reply: if someone could figure out how to add the
"correct" key line,
it might be an easy fix.
Otherwise I would try to use imagemagick (or alike) to separate RGB
into 3 separate gray images.
I am working with 16-bit gray TIFs in PIL for many years without
problem. (only to go immediately to numpy arrays then though; I can't
say anything about PIL's other functions, like cropping...)
