ansi2knr is only used when building libjpeg with (very) old
compilers. (It converts ANSI (ISO) C syntax to K&R syntax.) It does
not get included in the libjpeg library. The README says:

  However, since ansi2knr.c is not needed as part of any program
  generated from the IJG code, this does not limit you more than the
  foregoing paragraphs do.
