Bug your distro to package OpenJPEG
The new poppler major version that will come out in a month or so, sports a new JPEG2000 decoder based in OpenJPEG that is better than the current one, for example, it renders Google scanned docs, that is good. Yay! The problem is that actually not much distros package OpenJPEG (i could only find Debian), so go to your distro bug tracker and bug them to include OpenJPEG.

Not only Debian - Gentoo also provides an ebuild - look here. It is marked unstable on x86 and amd64, but (interesting) it is already stable on some other architectures :)
indirectly it's also available on opensuse...see here
Yay, Mandriva 2008 Spring also has it in repositories.
Fedora has openjpeg too!
$ yum search openjpeg
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
