Crash in TImage::Open when tensorflow is loaded

Opening an image after having loaded  tensorflow results in a crash in libAsImage. 

Code to reproduce it, after fixing the path to ROOTSYS for the image location

import ROOT

import tensorflow

f = ROOT.TImage.Open("tutorials/tmva/tmva_logo.gif")

Here is the  stack trace
