To be extremely clear: Andrew, do you object to bringing Omairs patch, as it is, into OpenJDK?

Yes.

Okay then.

I'll put a mental note to revisit libpng when cleaning up libraries.m4. Are we in agreement that it should to the following: --with-libpng=bundled | system | and if "system" is selected, it should first check with pkg-config, and only if that fails, try hard-coded values. In any case it should try to compile a short code to see that it works properly. (This is not needed for bundled; that is assumed to be working).
