Thanks, don't worry about testing it.  I was being optimistic, hoping
the option would be silently ignored by older versions.  :-)

I don't know enough about ImageMagick to see if there is a set of
commands that will work for all versions of ImageMagick, and
accomplish the same tasks we require for `make check'.

Should we add a new issue on the issue tracker regarding this issue?
