Comment:

 PS I'm not entirely sure whether my patch will work properly as it'll end
 up throwing an exception through C code. Until now, however, I haven't had
 any problems with throwing through C code though (I'm using it to
 determine the fileformat employed, i.e. try to load an image until one
 loader is successful).

 The problem is that libjpeg doesn't expect error_exit to return. So
 another, C-way, of solving this could be by using longjmp and converting
 to an exception at the jump target.
