The png.h did *NOT* exist on my inital install of FC3 which prompted me to
try installing a complete png. On examination of the errors, what is
missing are jpeg components. The first message of MANY is

/tmp/php-4.3.11/ext/gd/libgd/gd_jpeg.c:42:21: jpeglib.h: No such file or
directory

jpeglib.h is nowhere to be found pn my system.
