Is that really right?  The old pngcrush was 68K and linked against
libpng12 and zlib, while the new one is 435K and not linked against
anything.  Do you really want static linking?  pngcrush won't see
any security update to libpng or zlib without rebuilding.  I don't
think that's the right thing to do.
