[Ready for test/1.5.0] jpeg


jpeg-6b-9
libjpeg62-6b-9

This is NOT to be confused with today's non-test release of jpeg-6b-8 and
libjpeg6b-6b-8 (note that the lib package is "6b-6b-8" in the non-test,
and "62-6b-9" in test).  The new, curr: release has 'cygjpeg6b.dll' while
the new test: release 
has cygjpeg-62.dll.  BTW, maintainers: note that this means that your
dependencies, after you recompile for 1.5.0, will be "libjpeg62" not
"jpeg".

There are a few other changes in this test release:

1) compiled using libtool.  So, there's a libjpeg.la file now

2) includes the 'lossless crop' patch from the Mandrake jpeg RPM.  It's
pretty widely used; I think the Red Hat RPM uses it too. This is
*distinct* from the 'lossless jpeg' patch, which has been a part of the
cygwin jpeg packages for ages, not without controversy.
