Hmm maybe the commits to change the png shared library version from 4 to 5
should've been accompanied by a PORTREVISION bump to signal users to update.

| Dear FreeBSD porters,
| 
| A couple of days ago, I installed un updated version of png: viz., png-1.2.0.  
| A side effect of that was:
| 
| 209 6:50pm ~ >====> ldconfig -r | grep png
|         212:-lpng.5 => /usr/local/lib/libpng.so.5
| 
| 
| On the other hand, KDE/GNOME/etc, under XFree86-4.1.0_6, require libpng.so.4, 
| and failed to start.  To be able to access my webmail, I cheated, and copied 
| libpng.so.5 to libpng.so.4.
| 
| As a result, X loads, but no cigar^Wimages, of course.  Well, as far as 
| webmail is concerned, no big deal.
| 
| Has anybody else seen this?  Have I missed and/or scr***d something?  Should I 
| file a PR?
| 
| TIA,
| Salvo
