Latest changes:


28-Oct-2012  GBM.DLL 1.76
             * ZLIB updated to version 1.2.7
             * PNG codec     : Update to Libpng 1.5.13 (with APNG extension patch)
             * JPEG2000 codec: Update to OpenJPEG 1.5.1
             * RAW codec     : Update to libraw 0.14.7 (based on dcraw 9.15)
             * Fix building GBM without JBIG support
             * Use DosWaitEventSem on OS/2 instead of WinWaitEventSem
               to get rid of dependency to PMWIN.DLL. For GBM internal
               threads (gbmmthrd lib) there is no need to use Win function.
               As the gbmmthrd lib is also used by all command line tools
               and gbmrx.dll, they are also affected by this change.
