Bug discovered in every version later than v.3.9.0 (from the repository) on OpenSuse 13.1.

Some of the .png files are not displayed. I spotted this in 2 areas:
- Intro graphics (e.g. intro1.png ...)
- "Extra" logo graphics on "root" screen (e.g. logo1.png ...)
from the path: "data"/data/core/menu/textures/

I don't have any proofs, but have strong feeling that is somehow related with very new version of libpng library (1.6.6 / 16.6), and I know that in 1.6.2 have been implemented some more radical changes.

Unfortunately downgrade to lower library version isn't possible (without dirty hacks) because this version is reguired by a lot of packets including packets reguired by game itself.

That's not limited to Opensuse 13.1, I see the same on MegaGlest 3.9.1 running on Ubuntu 13.10 (atibox). I guess I just never noticed that the intro images which should be displayed around the animation and the license logos (GPL + CC) which should display on the bottom of the main menu screen, do not actually show.

That's libpng 1.2.49-4ubuntu1 here, so it wont be due to the recent changes you pointed out (unless those were backported).
