It occurs to me that we could add "stable" variants of the
'imagemagick', 'dblatex', and 'gtk-doc' packages. The stable variants
would be used as native-inputs by our core packages, thus allowing the
normal variants of these packages to be updated freely on our 'master'
branch. In particular, we could keep our 'imagemagick' package
up-to-date without grafting and without having to backport fixes.
What do you think?
