[Bug 1298779] [NEW] C++11 incompatibility

[Dan Kegel]

Public bug reported:

In Trusty beta 1, with libpng12-dev 1.2.50-1ubuntu1 installed,  I can't build an app that uses libpng.
Symptom here is

/usr/include/libpng12/png.h:2661:31: error: invalid suffix on literal; C++11 requires a space between literal and identifier [-Werror=literal-suffix]
        fprintf(PNG_DEBUG_FILE,"%s"m PNG_STRING_NEWLINE,(num_tabs==1 ? "\t" : \
                               ^
/usr/include/libpng12/png.h:2669:31: error: invalid suffix on literal; C++11 requires a space between literal and identifier [-Werror=literal-suffix]
        fprintf(PNG_DEBUG_FILE,"%s"m PNG_STRING_NEWLINE,(num_tabs==1 ? "\t" : \
                               ^
/usr/include/libpng12/png.h:2677:31: error: invalid suffix on literal; C++11 requires a space between literal and identifier [-Werror=literal-suffix]
        fprintf(PNG_DEBUG_FILE,"%s"m PNG_STRING_NEWLINE,(num_tabs==1 ? "\t" : \
                               ^

See also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=676157 for a report
from a year or so ago about the same problem.  I've also seen reports
of others hitting this in Trusty, e.g.
