Hi out there. I am about to go nuts any time here. I have tried on
google and on diff websites to get the clearest info on setting a thing
up for me.

 I have a SDL program that is constructed to load PNG-images with help
from SDL_image, right? 

On my linux setup everything works fine, but on Dev-Cpp/MingWin with
SDL+SDL_image I dont get the PNG files to load. Isn't SDL_image
pre-compiled to load PNG:s in Dev-Cpp?

Issue is this:
IMG_Load(bmp_file) works allright, but:
IMG_Load(png_file) makes the SDL parashute on me.

I have linked agains with:

gcc png.c -o png -lmingw32 -lz -lpng -lSDL -lSDLmain -lSDL_image

and Dev-Cpp does everything allright. I build my .exe-file without any
complains at all!

I need to load png-files coz my whole linux-project depends on it, and
it's a whole lot of work not just converting to BMP format if you know
what I mean. :) So I am hoping for some small hints, if any in here.

Waiting for game no. uno (Nwn)
