I shouldn't be so fast with my answers :-) Yes, indeed, the libjpeg fread was
the reason why I switched over to fopen. We could resort to read in the file
in java and produce from a buffer (like the URL prod), but that might eat up a
lot of memory. The best soultion seems to be a alternate source method (like
the buffer source thing).

Anyway, I don't want to patch libjpeg for that purpose.
