Out of curiosity more than any belief that I could really help, I had a bit of a
snoop around your project.
My first attempt involved using Panotools-script 'ptodummy' with your pto file
to see if it showed anything useful, but it failed...not sure if that was due to
an issue with the tool or with your pto file.
I then ran the pto file through ptoinfo, which produced the following partial
output...

-----------------------
The control point errors shown here look pretty large.
The other thing that comes to mind is that you say "they look like four or five
separate tiles, each made up of two or three images stitched together".
Have you looked at the control points linking the 'tiles'?
Not sure whether any of that helps, but good luck and hope someone who knows a
bit more will chime in with some real help.
Cheers,
