I vaguely recall also having poor quality jpegs with xli, before I
switched to zgv and xv. Have you tried xv?

The xv package is larger than a megabyte. This way is...

jpegtopnm - 89,308
ppmdither - 6,920
ppmtobmp - 10,148
libnetpbm.so.10.26 - 173,883

Grand total, 280,256, plus pnmscale (15,112), pngtopnm (60,456), and
libpng (~200K), BL3 and a ?100-byte? shell script. This way is more
flexible (general-purpose tools), smaller (the ELF headers are easier
to compress than xv code), works without leaving X11/xli/rxvt/sh and
won't crash like svgalib.
