So, shouldn't the inclusion of a "-lpng" param be dependent on  
whether wx used an internal or external PNG library, then?

I inherited this machine after other people had installed stuff on it  
and we can't predict whether other people's machines will have PNG  
libraries installed before they build wxWidgets or not.
