Except that I'm not going to be able to use jpegexiforient, because the image file apparently isn't in the correct form it wants. This test fails:

/* Read File head, check for JPEG SOI + Exif APP1 */
for (i = 0; i < 4; i++)
exif_data[i] = (unsigned char) read_1_byte();
if (exif_data[0] != 0xFF ||
  exif_data[1] != 0xD8 ||
  exif_data[2] != 0xFF ||
  exif_data[3] != 0xE1)
return 0;

since the 4th byte (exif_data[3]) is 0xE0. I don't really know what that means, other than I guess I'm back to square one trying to rotate an image, and update and preserve all the meta-data.

Guess I'm off to read the spec, unless anyone's got any great ideas for me. Please? Pretty please?

According to...

	http://www.astro.keele.ac.uk/oldusers/rno/Computing/File_magic.html

... the fourth byte should be 0xE0 in a JPEG. A bit of googling reveals that the first four bytes might be either FFD8FFE0 or FFD8FFE1.
