 The libpng port is at version 1.2.26 and works fine. Livecheck informs me
 that version 1.2.27 has been released, but it won't compile (on Mac OS X
 10.4.11 PPC at least):

 Similar stuff is happening to non-Mac users too; see
 [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1954297&group_id=5624&atid=105624
 their bug report] on SourceForge.

 This MacPorts ticket is to document the fact that we know a new version is
 available and to explain why we can't update to it at this time. If a
 patch emerges to let us install 1.2.27 we'll use that, or if 1.2.28 is
 released we'll update to that.
