My experience is like Bob's: lots of PNGs imported into LC for many 
years across many versions, and have never seen "slashed background 
lines" or lost transparency.

Perhaps double-check with your graphics person about how those were 
produced.  PNG is flexible and supports many options; maybe settings 
established for something else were left in place for the images 
exported to you.
