A cursory glance indicates that Iceweasel seems to be using its own
(possibly internal?) JPEG library, while chromium seems to use
libjpeg.
FWIW, I am using iceweasel 27.0.1-1 from experimental, and the
rendering is identical for me in chromium and iceweasel. This seems to
be an artefact in 24 though…
Sorry for not being much help.
