thanks for the explanation!
I get the return:
((xpm "libxpm.dll" "xpm4.dll" "libXpm-nox4.dll") (png "libpng14-14.dll" 
"libpng14.dll") (jpeg "jpeg62.dll" "libjpeg.dll" "jpeg-62.dll" 
"jpeg.dll") (tiff "libtiff3.dll" "libtiff.dll") (gif "giflib4.dll" 
"libungif4.dll" "libungif.dll") (svg "librsvg-2-2.dll") (gdk-pixbuf 
"libgdk_pixbuf-2.0-0.dll") (glib "libglib-2.0-0.dll") (gobject 
"libgobject-2.0-0.dll"))

I´ve got only the libpng14-14.dll for png, but that shouldn´t make a 
diffrence as I have only one out of three for gif, should it?

size is the same, the date is 2005-05-15, it is the latest I can find in 
GnuWin32

now I took the one from the recommended link, it has some more bytes, 
but changes nothing I can see.

I appreciate any further hint, thanks a lot
