Comment (by devernay):

 In fact, one issue with that change is that ports compiled against jpeg9
 may link to libjpeg.9.dylib (I just ran into this with the jpeg loading
 plugin in Qt), but libjpeg-turbo provides libjpeg.8.dylib, so it would
 also be a good thing to downgrade libjpeg to v8.

 Once again, nobody uses the v9 API, which is described by the JPEG itself
 in https://jpeg.org/items/20190204_press.html as: "a complete
 implementation of JPEG coming from the Committee itself that also covers
 coding modes that were only known by a few experts."
