Thomas,

Have you installed imagemagick using FInk?

On my Mac (running 10.5.4)

$ fink list imagemagick

I constructed a script for building Octave using dependencies managed  
by Fink. I posted by request earlier today. Its not exactly an  
impressive effort, but in the event   it may be useful to you ...
