A lot of the confusion stems from people thinking that JPEG==JFIF,
which isn't true. JFIF is the most widely supported standard for file
format, but it's obviously not the only one.
The JPEG output format from the Sun version of Alchemy (I have 1.4)
appears to be JFIF, since xli and xv display it and djpeg understands
it. I haven't used GIF2JPEG, but that may be a PC thing.
