I've just been bitten by

For this reason I suggest two improvements for the configure script of
emacs.

(1) Use `pkg-config' before `libpng-config' to detect libpng.

(2) If `libpng-config' is used, filter out `-L/usr/lib' and
     `-L/usr/lib64' (as suggested in issue #206).

Thanks, I installed the attached into master. It does (1), and as I understand it when (1) works then (2) is unnecessary. I'm hoping we don't have to do (2) as I worry that it might break things on some platforms.
