Changes since the last public release (1.6.6):
Version 1.6.7beta01 [September 30, 2013]
Revised unknown chunk code to correct several bugs in the NO_SAVE_/NO_WRITE
combination
Allow HANDLE_AS_UNKNOWN to work when other options are configured off. Also
fixed the pngminim makefiles to work when $(MAKEFLAGS) contains stuff
which terminates the make options (as by default in recent versions of
Gentoo).
Avoid up-cast warnings in pngvalid.c. On ARM the alignment requirements of
png_modifier are greater than that of png_store and as a consequence
compilation of pngvalid.c results in a warning about increased alignment
requirements because of the bare cast to (png_modifier*). The code is safe,
because the pointer is known to point to a stack allocated png_modifier,
but this change avoids the warning.
Fixed default behavior of ARM_NEON_API. If the ARM NEON API option was
compiled without the CHECK option it defaulted to on, not off.
Check user callback behavior in pngunknown.c. Previous versions compiled
if SAVE_UNKNOWN was not available but did nothing since the callback
was never implemented.
Merged pngunknown.c with 1.7 version and back ported 1.7 improvements/fixes
Version 1.6.7beta02 [October 2, 2013]
