That's done in current CVS. Changelog says:

2006-06-07  Andrey Kiselev
 * configure, configure.ac: OJPEG support enabled by default.
 * contrib/ojpeg/: Removed. New OJPEG support does not need this patch.

In older versions, the old unstable OJPEG support wasn't enabled by
default, for good reason, and it contained sufficient warning as to its
state near the top the source file.

In the new version, the top of the source file includes this remark:

<quote>
This file interfaces with Release 6B of the JPEG Library written by the
Independent JPEG Group. Previous versions of this file required a hack
inside the LibJpeg library. This version no longer requires that.
Remember to remove the hack if you update from the old version.
</quote>

I don't see what else we can do. I don't think we can go back and 'cure'
old version, or can we? So right now, we best simply recommend people
not to enable OJPEG support in current official distributions (as we did
before, even if only by not enabling it by default), or to use current
CVS version instead.
