What ends in Emacs is that our fatal signal handler is called, and
tries to handle the segfault.  But the segfault itself is clearly
inside ImageMagick, not in Emacs code.  Which still might mean we
somehow cause it, but I think we will need an ImageMagick expert, or
at least someone who will step through ImageMagick code, to tell us
what exactly is wrong, and why.
