        I'd agree with Bill if our libs were out of date,
        but I don't think they are.

        I know that Mike et al has been keeping the jpg/png libs current,
        at least in 1.x.x anyway.

        I myself compile statically against FLTK's internal jpg/png libs
        to avoid any random aspects of the os's version of these libs.

        My goal is to get a consistent version of these libs when I compile
        across several platforms, and similarly consistent behavior on the
        end user's machines.
