Built Makefile.in with automake-1.9.6 instead of 1.9.2.
Build configure with autoconf-2.60 instead of 2.59.

version 1.4.0beta20 [July 9, 2008]
Moved several PNG_HAVE_* macros from pngpriv.h to png.h because applications
calling set_unknown_chunk_location() need them.
Moved several macro definitions from pngpriv.h to pngconf.h
Added png_ptr->unknown_chunk to hold working unknown chunk data, so it
can be free'ed in case of error. Revised unknown chunk handling in
pngrutil.c and pngpread.c to use this structure.

it will be freed by png_read_destroy() in case of a read error.
version 1.4.0betaN [future]
Build shared libraries with -lz and sometimes -lm.
Revised pngvcrd.c for improved efficiency.
