Thomas,
Sorry it took me awhile to respond - I'd left things compiling when I
went home last night, and it failed, so I had to fix it and get it going
again this morning. With libpng 1.5.3 beta3 and mapserver 6.0 beta 7
(since it was released before I fixed things this morning), everything
now seems fine.
