Actually, I had every intention of rejecting that bug WONTFIX.
I don't think it's a good idea to get into the business of carrying
nontrivial feature patches that aren't upstream.

(Yes, I know libjpeg upstream is kinda moribund, but if you want new
features in it you should be trying to revive upstream development,
not strongarm the Fedora package maintainer to take over development.)
