Just out of curiosity: if we bump the jpeg library's 'max block' to 64,
and I use the library to write a new jpeg file (using maybe xv),
would the new file be sometimes non-standard-compliant and thus be
rejected by some viewers ?

(I guess what I mean to ask, is that whether the few arrays affected
are only used during decoding, or if they're used during encoding as well.)

If so, then in my humble opinion I think we need to keep jpeg library
the way it is, and let ghostscript fend for itself.
