 GIF_LIB_VERSION is defined in 4.1.6 and prior.
 GIFLIB_MAJOR is defined after 4.1.6 (include 4.2.x).
 
 Then...
 GIF_LIB_VERSION must be used for version check before 4.1.6,
 GIFLIB_MAJOR must be used for version check after 4.1.6.

 Here are some information about `Forward and Backward Compatibility' of giflib:
