Success! Though not without some drama along the way I deleted the _imaging*.so files and reinstalled PIL - no change. So I next backed up and removed the entire PIL directory and reinstalled - still no change. Then I thought that maybe the files are created first in the setup directory and copied across. So I deleted all the setup files and reinstalled from the original tarball.
This time it looked like disaster - Python didn't even get as far as Imaging, but fell over somewhere in Tkinter with a message about Tclerror(?). I went back to the install and ran the setup test which seemed to complete ok - I think it said 55 tests passed. I reran my jpg test script, and this time it worked! I can't recall the exact Tcl error message, and it's scrolled off screen by now, so I just hope that it doesn't recur. It looks as if everything is working. Thanks for all the guidance.
