I don't know where you got your expected result of 0X1.82C6C5A295941P+903 from.
 MPFR says the correctly rounded result is 0X1.0C30CB214BBF4P-9, i.e. glibc's
result is only 1ulp below the correctly rounded value.  Wolfram Alpha appears
to agree, though I only eyeballed the decimal value given.  Since there are
already ulps files checked in with bigger expected errors for jn with smaller
arguments, I don't think there's any point adding this 1ulp error as a new
testcase or keeping this bug open for that 1ulp error.
