It's obviously just one, none of the 20 others I just checked:

[Image.tif (image/tiff, inline)]

[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

In GNU Emacs 23.3 I get, when typing v on the file in dired:

	Type C-c C-c to view the image as text.
	File local-variables error: (error "Malformed -*- line")
	Type C-c C-c to view the image as an image.
	Reverting buffer `Arbeit'.
