Summary: loadpng.h gets installed to /usr/include/

Initial Comment:
History: 

I've recently migrated some 50+ applications to libpng 1.4.1 API and noticed this generic name, loadpng.h, being used in several of these. Programs, old games, ...

In short:

The loadpng.h is way too common name to be installed directly under /usr/include/ as it will potentially break building of these 3rd party applications.

Solution:

Since loadpng.pc is installed, pkg-config --cflags loadpng could list /usr/include/loadpng/ directory as -I flag
and loadpng.h could get installed under /usr/include/loadpng/ instead of /usr/include/

hope that clears it up :)
