There is a library called LIBPNG by G.E. Schalnet, that is present on
several FTP sites (I think the latest version is LBPNG081.ZIP).
I cannot say anything about it, as I've downloaded it but never had time
to test. However, it appears to have a makefile for gcc under DOS
(==DJGPP, I suppose).
You'll also need the ZLIB library (ZLIB104.ZIP or something similar -
this latter works surely).

Hope this helps you.
