AFAIK, the minimal pillow version is mostly there because older versions 
are affected by several security issues.
If the distro is backporting security issues to old pillow versions, 
then you should be able to "manually" downgrade the pillow requirement 
without impact on ReportLab.
But Robin might give some more enlightment to this question.
