In configure.in, why is it LIBFLTK_LIBS=`fltk2-config --use-images --ldflags` if we use the system png/jpeg/etc. libraries and not the fltk ones? I just tried removing the --use-images argument, and everything still works for me.

Probably because that way it worked with an older version. Does the generated binary size change? Or is there a change with ldd? If the button icons load OK, and the file chooser works, there should be no problems. Those widgets *may* need the internal image handling (but I don't know for sure). -- Cheers Jorge.-

No difference. (I was hoping it might make it a bit smaller.)
