criticalmass @1.0.2_3 build error due to requirement for older libpng 1.2

Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))
This application hasn't been updated in a long time (about 2010). The present version on macports tries to build the 2006 version, which was written against an earlier version of libpng and fails due to the same opaque structure update issue as affected other ports when libpng was updated to 1.5. ticket:35949
There is no port maintainer, but even if there were, I'm not certain if upstream is still interested in maintaining this application, given the length of time since the last update. There is a slightly newer "RC" version of the source from 2010 that looks to have the same libpng code, so looks like it would fail to build too. Given the lack of macports bug reports on it, perhaps no-one is too interested in this port any longer?
The application can at present still be downloaded in compiled form at <http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/project/criticalmass/Critical%20Mass/1.0.2/CriticalMass-1.0.2a.dmg>.
I note this info here in case anyone else tries to install this one.
