I can't reproduce this on an up to date sid system:
dom@hurdtest:~/perlmagick-demos$ perl -v
This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 2 (v5.14.2) built for i486-gnu-thread-multi-64int
(with 59 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)
...
dom@hurdtest:~$ perl -e 'use Image::Magick;'
dom@hurdtest:~$
I think bisecting to find out where the bug went away is going to be a
lot of work for not much gain, so I propose to just close this off with
no further work. Any objections?
Thanks,
Dominic.
