yeah, it turns out that gdalwarp doesn't like to compress on the fly.
As far as I understand it works chunk by chunk, and doesn't consider the case where the size of the chuck changes after compression, and so boundaries between chunks get blurred and once a chuck steps out of
bounds of the original you get the segfault.

solution: remove the "-co 'COMPRESS=DEFLATE'" from the gdalwarp line.
