It does seem that loading libVLCore interferes with the use of libjpeg;
if you use `racket/gui' in "guibug_req.rkt", that would avoid the
problem by initializing the libjpeg use in `racket/draw' (via
`racket/gui') before libVLCore is loaded.

Even if libVLCore is statically linked to a libjpeg, I think it could
interact with dynamic loading of another libjpeg, depending on the
platform and linking options.

Can you say more about the platform, libVLCore's linking, and the
libjpeg that libVLCore uses?
