libpng14-devel does not provide libpng.dll.a

[Yaakov (Cygwin/X)]

Chuck,

libpng14-devel provides libpng.a and libpng.la symlinks, but no
libpng.dll.a symlink.  I presume this is unintentional?

Yes. They changed the way these symlinks were done, to this:

        for ext in a la so
so.@PNGLIB_MAJOR@@PNGLIB_MINOR@.@PNGLIB_RELEASE@ sl dylib; do\

but dll.a is missing from that list. I'll roll out a replacement Sunday.

I already took care of it upstream.
