the thing in question was, that you tried my old patch if it uses the new 
functions ... and this can't never work, course the old patch doesn't know of 
the new existing functions.

I can try to make the new patch working how you mentioned, but I think this 
makes the source bigger. And, mngzilla distribute mng inside them self, so 
the glue code uses the same libmng code for which it is written. You can also 
softlink to an installed libmng ... but then the glucode should mention it 
need's >=1.0.8 (cause of the crashers in the lower versions).

Greetings Alex//

PS: All seems to compile fine, but I've a little bug in ReadSegment at the 
moment.
