I'll try to check on few systems where cingg builds - FreeBSD, NetBSD,
various linux from ubuntu to Rosa to Slackware (we do not build on Irix,
Solaris, HP-UX .... And cygwin  probably uses gnu binutils?)


I asked more if patch was working for you in this case ...even if it turned
to be unportable we can selectively apply it....

thanks for idea .... I think pngtoh tool in guicast tries to do that.
(turns png into data arrays inside header)
