This problem is solved. Partly I had unnecessary code, partly I did  
not see this.

Therefore I have the \ifpdf clause, but in the end TeX4ht fails to  
handle the image file. No matter what file type I offer (or not  
offer), the HTML output has no working picture because something fails:

	Execute script `File.lg'
	----------------------------
	t4ht.c (2006-09-13-14:28 kpathsea)
	t4ht -f/File.tex
	(/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.pkgs/tex4ht/base/win32/tex4ht.env)
•this could be a good reason why gs fails: I have installed a newer  
version with MiKTeX Package Manager•
	Entering File.lg
	System call: if exist zzFile.ps DEL zzFile.ps >nul
	sh: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file
	--- Warning --- System return: 512
	Entering File.css
	Entering File.tmp

I then used my TeX Live 2007 DVD. It does a better job with t4ht.c  
(2007-01-05-03:17 kpathsea), no error and a PNG picture: which has  
clipped off about 80 % of its original contents, only feet and shin  
bones are visible. The same happens when I update local /usr/local/ 
gwTeX/texmf.pkgs/tex4ht/base/unix from the DVD.

Original PNG file has:

   pixelWidth: 456
   pixelHeight: 564

TeX4ht's copy has:

   pixelWidth: 47
   pixelHeight: 17

(found with 'sips --getProperty all <file name>')
