The general BLFS policy is to use system installed versions of
libraries as much as possible. This allows upgrading the library
without having to recompile all dependent packages. For example, if a
bug were found in libjpeg, you would only need to recompile libjpeg
without waiting for mozilla devs to patch their internal copy of
libjpeg.
