Actually the error messages about the inconsistent dll linkage occur when I
am trying to build the png library supplied with ITK in the CVS repository.
But just to be sure I also checked my system and found no other png
libraries called itkpng.lib. Also I have downloaded release 1.0.0 of ITK and
compiled the png library supplied with that version and found no error
messages when the library was being built.

Is it possible that I can add the GIPL file readers to release 1.0.0 and
then recompile as I only need to use the GIPL image readers and not the png
image readers? Which files would I need to add/change?

Thanks,

Raghavendra
