Best way to override jr_* functions

Hi,
I would like to override the output of functions like jr_job_author(), jr_title() in a child theme. These functions are defined in 'includes/theme-functions.php' which is loaded with require() so I cannot override it in a child theme and none of the available hooks seem to allow me to alter the output of these functions either. I could override all templates that call these functions but this seems a somewhat backward-*** way of doing it.

Is my only alternative here to alter the JobRoller core theme? I am hoping to avoid this (for the usual maintainability reasons).

If so, can I suggest that these functions be wrapped in function_exists() checks in a future release so that they can be overridden in child themes.

Thanks for your time,
