Attempting to install the perl module GD 1.33. I installed the zlib libraries 1.1.3, libpng 1.0.10, and jpeg release 6b, gd 1.8.4 on a FreeBSD 3.5 machine.

Each individual component compiles and tests without error. I can get the GD perl module to compile. When I run the make test on GD, it fails with the following error: 
t/GD................gd-png:  fatal libpng error: Application must be r
+ecompiled;
version 1.0.6 was incompatible

My first thought was that I had the wrong png libraries, but I reinstalled the 1.0.10 libraries, and attempt a recompile on GD still with the same results.

Any pointers or suggestions?
