Hm, this is an external dependency which breaks self contained builds of XFree86. We normally try to keep all lib sources that we depend on (except libc, libm) in xc/extras/ to be independent of the installed packages/versions on a system. I wonder why this problem has not surfaced before. Is png.h installed by default on all platforms we support. I wonder how long we can keep up providing a slef contained build environment.
