Okay; I built libpng and zlib again, along with the jpeg and tiff 
libraries, and it's still complaining about X11.  So I guess I need to 
either replace my openwindows system (not feasable), or disable X11. 
 I'll look at the makefile to see if I can figure out how to do that, 
but if someone can just tell me, that'll be great.

No; fortunately, binaries compiled for one Windows machine will work on 
another. 8)  Which means that smart people can do the compiling, while 
dummies like me can just use it. 8)
