I use the following sequence of commands using python's Imaging library:

    im = Image.open(os.path.join(workingDir, imname))
    im2 = Image.new('RGBA', (im.size[0], im.size[1]), (255,255,255))
    im2.paste(im, (0, 0))

To explicitly create an alpha channel I use:
    alpha = ImageChops.invert(im.convert('L'))
    im = im.putalpha(alpha)

This creates a PNG with a proper alpha channel.  I would VERY much like
it if dvipng did this for me.  I would love it if you could hack it in
to dvipng.

Unless I am mistaken, the CVS version of dvipng does create a proper-alpha PNG if you use '-bg Transparent' (capital T). This is to be released very soon as dvipng-1.6. Please try it out, I'd like to remove any remaining flaws.
