 If using a 64-bit data model, then instead pass an argument of
 -Djava.library.path=/opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib/amd64 to use the 64-bit version of
 libturbojpeg.so.

+Note for MinGW users
+--------------------
+
+When libjpeg-turbo is built with MinGW, the TurboJPEG/OSS dynamic library is
+named libturbojpeg.dll instead of turbojpeg.dll.  This is in keeping with the
+convention of MinGW, and it also avoids a filename conflict when the GCC and
+Visual C++ versions of the libjpeg-turbo SDK are installed on the same system.
+However, the TurboJPEG/OSS JNI wrapper will not work on Windows unless the DLL
+is named turbojpeg.dll.  You can work around this by renaming the DLL or by
+simply changing the LoadLibrary() calls in turbojpeg.java so that they load
+"libturbojpeg" instead of "turbojpeg".
