The problem with the Imagemagick-people is that nobody is testing the
new releases on OpenVMS. I have not checked the 5.4 release, but I had
to mke a few changes to the 5.3.9 distribution. Especially the
MAGICKSHR.OPT file is never updated with the new externals/and old
omitted externals -> the 8 undefined.
linking display.c goes wrong because the imagemack -people only included
half of my patches last time : the magickshr.opt file is still case
insensitive.
I'll have a look at 5.4 later.
