Version 1.5.3beta07 [May 11, 2011]
  Added expand_16 support to the high level interface.
  Added named value and 'flag' gamma support to png_set_gamma.  Made a minor
    change from the previous (unreleased) ABI/API to hide the exact value used
    for Macs - it's not a good idea to embed this in the ABI!
  Moved macro definitions for PNG_HAVE_IHDR, PNG_HAVE_PLTE, and PNG_AFTER_IDAT
    from pngpriv.h to png.h because they must be visible to applications
    that call png_set_unknown_chunks().
  Check for up->location !PNG_AFTER_IDAT when writing unknown chunks
    before IDAT.

Version 1.5.3beta08 [May 16, 2011]
  Improved "pngvalid --speed" to exclude more of pngvalid from the time.
  Documented png_set_alpha_mode(), other changes in libpng.3/libpng-manual.txt
  The cHRM chunk now sets the defaults for png_set_rgb_to_gray() (when negative
    parameters are supplied by the caller), while in the absence of cHRM
    sRGB/Rec 709 values are still used.  This introduced a divide-by-zero
    bug in png_handle_cHRM().
  The bKGD chunk no longer overwrites the background value set by
    png_set_background(), allowing the latter to be used before the file
    header is read. It never performed any useful function to override
    the default anyway.
  Added memory overwrite and palette image checks to pngvalid.c
    Previously palette image code was poorly checked. Since the transformation
    code has a special palette path in most cases this was a severe weakness.
  Minor cleanup and some extra checking in pngrutil.c and pngrtran.c. When
    expanding an indexed image, always expand to RGBA if transparency is
    present.

Version 1.5.3beta09 [May 17, 2011]
  Reversed earlier 1.5.3 change of transformation order; move png_expand_16
    back where it was.  The change doesn't work because it requires 16-bit
    gamma tables when the code only generates 8-bit ones.  This fails
    silently; the libpng code just doesn't do any gamma correction.  Moving
    the tests back leaves the old, inaccurate, 8-bit gamma calculations, but
    these are clearly better than none!

Version 1.5.3beta10 [May 20, 2011]

  png_set_background() and png_expand_16() did not work together correctly.
    This problem is present in 1.5.2; if png_set_background is called with
    need_expand false and the matching 16 bit color libpng erroneously just
    treats it as an 8-bit color because of where png_do_expand_16 is in the
    transform list.  This simple fix reduces the supplied colour to 8-bits,
    so it gets smashed, but this is better than the current behavior.
  Added tests for expand16, more fixes for palette image tests to pngvalid.
    Corrects the code for palette image tests and disables attempts to
    validate palette colors.

Version 1.5.3rc01 [June 3, 2011]
  No changes.

Version 1.5.3rc02 [June 8, 2011]
  Fixed uninitialized memory read in png_format_buffer() (Bug report by
    Frank Busse, CVE-2011-2501, related to CVE-2004-0421).

Version 1.5.3beta11 [June 11, 2011]
  Fixed png_handle_sCAL which is broken in 1.5. This fixes CVE 2011-2692.
  Added sCAL to pngtest.png
  Revised documentation about png_set_user_limits() to say that it also affects
    png writing.
  Revised handling of png_set_user_limits() so that it can increase the
    limit beyond the PNG_USER_WIDTH|HEIGHT_MAX; previously it could only
    reduce it.
  Make the 16-to-8 scaling accurate. Dividing by 256 with no rounding is
    wrong (high by one) 25% of the time. Dividing by 257 with rounding is
    wrong in 128 out of 65536 cases. Getting the right answer all the time
    without division is easy.
  Added "_SUPPORTED" to the PNG_WRITE_CUSTOMIZE_ZTXT_COMPRESSION macro.
  Added projects/owatcom, an IDE project for OpenWatcom to replace
    scripts/makefile.watcom.  This project works with OpenWatcom 1.9. The
    IDE autogenerates appropriate makefiles (libpng.mk) for batch processing.
    The project is configurable, unlike the Visual Studio project, so long
    as the developer has an awk.
  Changed png_set_gAMA to limit the gamma value range so that the inverse
    of the stored value cannot overflow the fixed point representation,
    and changed other things OpenWatcom warns about.
  Revised pngvalid.c to test PNG_ALPHA_MODE_SUPPORTED correctly. This allows
    pngvalid to build when ALPHA_MODE is not supported, which is required if
    it is to build on libpng 1.4.
  Removed string/memory macros that are no longer used and are not
    necessarily fully supportable, particularly png_strncpy and png_snprintf.
  Added log option to pngvalid.c and attempted to improve gamma messages.

Version 1.5.3 [omitted]
  People found the presence of a beta release following an rc release
    to be confusing; therefore we bump the version to libpng-1.5.4beta01
    and there will be no libpng-1.5.3 release.

Version 1.5.4beta01 [June 14, 2011]
  Made it possible to undefine PNG_READ_16_TO_8_ACCURATE_SCALE_SUPPORTED
    to get the same (inaccurate) output as libpng-1.5.2 and earlier.
  Moved definitions of PNG_HAVE_IHDR, PNG_AFTER_IDAT, and PNG_HAVE_PLTE
    outside of an unknown-chunk block in png.h because they are also
    needed for other uses.

Version 1.5.4beta02 [June 14, 2011]
  Fixed and clarified LEGACY 16-to-8 scaling code.
  Added png_set_chop_16() API, to match inaccurate results from previous
    libpng versions.
  Removed the ACCURATE and LEGACY options (they are no longer useable)
  Use the old scaling method for background if png_set_chop_16() was
    called.
  Made png_set_chop_16() API removeable by disabling PNG_CHOP_16_TO_8_SUPPORTED

Version 1.5.4beta03 [June 15, 2011]
  Fixed a problem in png_do_expand_palette() exposed by optimization in
    1.5.3beta06
  Also removed a spurious and confusing "trans" member ("trans") from png_info.
  The palette expand optimization prevented expansion to an intermediate RGBA
    form if tRNS was present but alpha was marked to be stripped; this exposed
    a check for tRNS in png_do_expand_palette() which is inconsistent with the
    code elsewhere in libpng.
  Correction to the expand_16 code; removed extra instance of
    png_set_scale_16_to_8 from pngpriv.h

Version 1.5.4beta04 [June 16, 2011]
  Added a missing "#ifdef PNG_READ_BACKGROUND_SUPPORTED/#endif" in pngrtran.c
  Added PNG_TRANSFORM_CHOP_16 to the high-level read transforms.
  Made PNG_READ_16_TO_8_ACCURATE_SCALE configurable again.  If this is
