+
+Changes since the last public release (1.5.2):
+
+ More -Wshadow fixes for older gcc compilers. Older gcc versions apparently
+ check formal parameters names in function declarations (as well as
+ definitions) to see if they match a name in the global namespace.
+ Revised PNG_EXPORTA macro to not use an empty parameter, to accommodate the
+ old VisualC++ preprocessor.
+ Turned on interlace handling in png_read_png().
+ Fixed gcc pendantic warnings.
+ Handle longjmp in Cygwin.
+ Fixed png_get_current_row_number() in the interlaced case.
+ Cleaned up ALPHA flags and transformations.
+ Implemented expansion to 16 bits.
+ Fixed mistake in the descriptions of user read_transform and write_transform
+ function prototypes in the manual. The row_info struct is png_row_infop.
+ Corrected png_get_current_row_number documentation
+ Fixed the read/write row callback documentation.
+ This documents the current behavior, where the callback is called after
+ every row with information pertaining to the next row.
+ Fixed scripts/makefile.vcwin32
+ Updated contrib/pngsuite/README to add the word "modify".
+ Define PNG_ALLOCATED and other attributes to blank when _MSC_VER<1300.
+ ifdef out mask arrays in pngread.c when interlacing is not supported.
+ Added a hint to try CPP=/bin/cpp if "cpp -E" fails in scripts/pnglibconf.mak
+ and in contrib/pngminim/*/makefile, eg., on SunOS 5.10, and removed "strip"
+ from the makefiles.
+ Fixed a bug (present since libpng-1.0.7) that makes png_handle_sPLT() fail
+ to compile when PNG_NO_POINTER_INDEXING is defined (Chubanov Kirill)
+ Don't include standard header files in png.h while building the symbol table,
+ to avoid cpp failure on SunOS (introduced PNG_BUILDING_SYMBOL_TABLE macro).
