Well, all we *really* care is that it doesn't crash, so one solution is
to move that test from pass to "indeterminate".

I'm not mad about that idea really as that's super yucky, but it's a
short term workaround. Do we have any idea what the trigger is for
failure for some people ?, e.g. libjpeg version, distro version or what
not ? I'd prefer to force such busted jpegs to fail universally if
there's a version of libjpeg out there which has a legitimate reason to
barf on them.
