OK, I got the thing to build and updated the README with instructions
for dummies like me.  I tested the install and we are still getting
the libpng triggered segfault.  I removed the win32 binaries from the
website yesterday since they showed the same problem.  So now we have
to drill into this problem.  Do you recall what version of libpng you
used for the 98.5.2 builds.  I may try regressing and see if that
helps.
