I ran into the same issue recently on 10.6.8. I had ImageMagick installed (on the back) and then freetype and ghostscript installed and started to get a crash. The fix for me was just updating ImageMagick, which was rebuilding and linking to newer libtiff and other libraries.

 brew upgrade imagemagick

I had a similar problem with the libpng when I tried to use the convert command with png files.

At first I tried updating imagemagick, but for the current version of brew, I had no updates. Updating brew and then updating ImageMagick solved the problem.

 brew update brew upgrade imagemagick
