   Avoid potential overflow of the PNG_IMAGE_SIZE macro.  This macro

+Version 1.6.24beta02 [June 20, 2016]
+  Correct filter heuristic overflow handling. This was broken when the
+    write filter code was moved out-of-line; if there is a single filter and
+    the heuristic sum overflows the calculation of the filtered line is not
+    completed.  In versions prior to 1.6 the code was duplicated in-line
+    and the check not performed, so the filter operation completed; however,
+    in the multi-filter case where the sum is performed the 'none' filter would
+    be selected if all the sums overflowed, even if it wasn't in the filter
+    list.  The fix to the first problem is simply to provide PNG_SIZE_MAX as
+    the current lmins sum value; this means the sum can never exceed it and
+    overflows silently.  A reasonable compiler that does choose to inline
+    the code will simply eliminate the sum check.
+  The fix to the second problem is to use high precision arithmetic (this is
+    implemented in 1.7), however a simple safe fix here is to chose the lowest
+    numbered filter in the list from png_set_filter (this only works if the
+    first problem is also fixed) (John Bowler).
+  Use a more efficient absolute value calculation on SSE2 (Matthieu Darbois).
