The only library in jfsutils is statically linked to the utilities.
There is no general-purpose library.

The on-disk format is unlikely to change, so using a copy of the code is
probably okay (jfsutils and anyfs-tools are both GPL).  It's not the
cleanest solution though.

Is this just a packaging request?  That is, are the library and header
files useful as-is, or are there any particular functions that you need?

It would make sense for the library and headers to be a separate
package, probably jfsutils-devel.

I accept patches.  :-)

Thanks,
