Seeing as how I already had a program that could convert HDR <--> OpenEXR,  
it was a relatively small task to add rudimentary PNG support. It can read  
PNG files with 8 or 16 bits/component, and write PNG files with 16  
bits/component. It's a very simple program, so no gamma correction,  
exposure control etc.
It is Windows only; I don't want to have to check all of it for  
portability. Tested on XP and 98SE.
