You want "make check", not "make distcheck".  The latter builds a
distribution, unpacks it, and tests it in a standard environment.  It
should ignore all local configuration but it's probably possible to
fool it by setting stuff in the environment (I don't think it cleans
the environment - it's very difficult to do in a portable way "env
-i".

With the parallel builds (now the default in 1.6.1 and 1.7) the
pngtest log ends up in tests/pngtest.log, with the 1.5 serial
environment it is in pngtest-log.txt.
