A quick follow-up.  Yes, as Bruno suggested, the bug was in the binary
package for vigra.  I'm still trying to understand why: the Makefile
clearly specifies PNG support, and if you build the port from source,
it works.  So for all of you FreeBSD users out there champing at the
bit to process PNG images, here's what you do:

  # cd /usr/ports/graphics/vigra
  # make deinstall all reinstall
