The rebuilds were for library linked packages. I have not touched any packages that
shell out. A reqpoquery returns about 46 packages that may do so. It may be more
effective to add a "7" to the newer binaries.

That's great, but that would be far beyond what I'm willing to work on. I also
don't
know how receptive upstreams would be to patches for that conversion. I picked up
ImageMagick only two weeks ago to prevent a disaster from hitting stable Fedora
releases. I am not positive I want to become a permanent maintainer of it.
Well, the easy option is just to revert to 6.9.9 and not update to 7 at
all. It's not incumbent upon us to do so at least until upstream starts
making noises about killing the 6 series, and there doesn't seem to be
any particularly strong *reason* to do it...
