Andris, nice to see you're still around, too... hadn't heard from
you in quite a while...

That's of course a silly one.  It probably won't happen to those platforms
that have shared libraries with internal dependencies (ie: Linux).

I'm in the process of building the official 4.0.0 binary with DJGPP, which
will use current version of all 5 libraries (z, png, jpeg, freetype and
GD).  I'll watch out for that gotcha.  If we find that to be strictly
necessary, I guess it's still time to squeeze in yet another silent update
of the source tarball.
