I've been using 2.6.0_final (snow leopard) for a few weeks now without 
problems. Some of my apps use libpng, and there were no problems with the libs 
in /opt/X11/lib.

I was building some new apps today that use png, against the headers in 
XQuartz. First time trying this with 2.6.0. gcc was throwing png-related 
errors. I had no png packages installed besides those from Apple and XQuartz. 

All my paths are all set to /usr/local first, then /opt/X11, then /usr/X11 
last. So I'm pretty sure the ones from XQuartz were the ones being used.

I compiled libpng1.5.1 and installed into /usr/local. I pruned out all the png 
files from /opt/X11 (except libs in /opt/X11/lib). All gcc errors went away. 

I don't think the problem is the libpng version number, since 1.5.1 is working. 
I think there was something wrong with the include headers or something. 
Perhaps the libpng version in XQuartz 2.6.0 was an early version of 1.5 with 
bugs.
