So far, we've packaged ImageMagick 6, which is still maintained.
Apparently the API changed in 7. I don't know the status of adoption of
the new version.

On the ImageMagick-6 branch, this was fixed in
524349d2b3fed7fa0e53de2c908458474eb24418 and released as 6.9.5-10.

I don't see this fix on the 6 branch, but a similar change was made
earlier in 3c9533980a9476caa649de3b248dfefd3f182866 and released in
6.9.4-0.
