I can't really answer that question because, as a starter, I don't even
know what AppleVPA is doing when it crashes, and there's no way to find
out, AFAIK. In general, with multi-threading, ASLR, and whatnot, things
tend to not behave consistently quite frequently, at least in my
experience.
I'd personally give jpeginfo a try. It's cheap. Just 'brew install'
it.

I can't find documentation for this. I guess I only "know" about this
because I added it in 1998, according to the ChangeLog, which must be a
lie :-).
Anyways. On my system, I just did 'brew install libjpeg' and then
'./configure'. The file config.log showed that configure was trying to
use libjpeg, but didn't like it for some reason I don't remember.
BTW, Homebrew also has other jpeg libs ('brew search jpeg' and so on),
but I didn't try them all. As I mentioned, I don't do much with images
myself.
Maybe it's also worth asking an help-gnu-emacs, if this doesn't work.
Or someone reading this knows more about this topic.
