one more comment about dvipng on OSF1 v4.0:   dvipng uses snprintf().  

on OSF1 you have to link with "-ldb" for snpritnf(), or use your own implementation.

configure should test for snprintf() and it should look in libdb for snprintf
in this test for AXP.


my 2nd temporary hack in the Makefile to build 2.96.4.20040627 on AXP:
