SDL_image is an image file loading library.

It loads images as SDL surfaces, and supports the following formats: BMP, GIF,
JPEG, LBM, PCX, PNG, PNM, TGA, TIFF, XCF, XPM, XV 

As of SDL_image 1.2.6, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF image loading libraries are
dynamically loaded, so if you don't need to load those formats, you don't need
to include those shared libraries. libpng depends on libz, and libtiff depends
on both libz and libjpeg.

Notes from submitter:

Both clib2 and newlib builds are included.
