The first undefined symbol AcquireMemory is referenced in "magick/utility.h"
extern MagickExport void
   *AcquireMemory(const size_t),

and the action is described in: MEMORY.C
%  Method AcquireMemory returns a pointer to a block of at least size bytes
%  suitably aligned for any use.
%
%  The format of the AcquireMemory method is:
%
%      void *AcquireMemory(const size_t size)
%
%  A description of each parameter follows:
%
%    o memory: Method AcquireMemory returns a pointer to a block of at
%      least size bytes suitably aligned for any use.
%
%    o size: Specifies the size of the memory to return.
%
%
*/
MagickExport void *AcquireMemory(const size_t size)
{
   void
     *allocation;

   assert(size != 0);
   allocation=malloc(size);
   return(allocation);
}

But there is no malloc library, therefore in CONFIG_VMS.H:
/* Define if you have the <malloc.h> header file.  */
#undef HAVE_MALLOC_H

At the moment my understanding is there is a reference to a function which isn't 
available.
