FYI, gs supports progressive JPEG if compiled with progressive-enabled
libjpeg.  That is not the default build but it only takes a one-line
change to a config file to make it happen.

You are right that Adobe RIPs do not cope with p-JPEG, so it would
probably be better if tiff2ps re-encoded progressive data to non
progressive...
