I removed some of the JPEG-specific details so the recommendation
now reads, in the 2017-06-09b version,

While the PNG specification allows the chunk size to be as large as
2^31-1 bytes, application authors should be aware that, if the Exif profile
is going to be written to a JPEG datastream, the total length of the eXIf
chunk data may need to be adjusted to not exceed 2^16-9 bytes, so it can fit
into a JPEG APP1 marker.
