Description:
------------
Tried to run configure using this line (which works 
without the --with-gd and --with-jpeg-dir options):

./configure --with-apxs --with-zlib=/usr --with-mysql --
enable-cgi --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir --with-ldap --with-
xml --with-iodbc --enable-sockets --enable-dbx --enable-
dbase --enable-trans-sid --enable-exif --enable-wddx --
enable-ftp --enable-mbstring --with-iconv

configure told me this:

checking for png_write_image in -lpng... no
configure: error: Problem with libpng.(a|so) or 
libz.(a|so). Please check config.log for more 
information.

config.log has this to say:

configure:30316: checking for png_write_image in -lpng
configure:30335: gcc -o conftest -g -O2  -no-cpp-precomp 
-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib  -L/usr/local/lib -L/
usr/local/lib -lz conftest.c -lpng  -ljpeg -lz -lm  1>&5
ld: table of contents for archive: /usr/local/lib/
libpng.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load 
from it)
configure: failed program was:
#line 30324 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"/* Override any gcc2 internal 
prototype to avoid an error.  */
/* We use char because int might match the return type 
of a gcc2
    builtin and then its argument prototype would still 
apply.  */char png_write_image();

int main() {
png_write_image(); return 0; }


I also get this error trying to compile/configure PHP 
4.3.7RC1. The strange thing is, I have 4.3.6 running 
already with GD included. I have somewhat changed my 
system since last install, but even reinstalling zlib 
and libpng, this persists, and since the GD stuff 
supposedly comes bundled with PHP, I don't see how I 
could've messed things up.
