Troubles with `hand-built systems' is just secondary. As mentioned
before, Debian is going to drop support for `xxx-config' scripts soon.
Instead, it will fully rely on pkg-config. Consequently, Emacs has
eventually switch to pkg-config for finding libpng, too.
Please don't stop investigating why the code fails.
