Subject: ImageMagick doesn't display some image formats
Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2011 00:01:07 +0200

Visiting images whose format is supported by ImageMagick displays
a small empty box.

Read-only formats like .dot have only read-functions, but not write-functions
(the error being "no encode delegate for this image format").

`imagemagick_load_image' calls `MagickPingImage' to read image attributes.
But since before this calls there is an other call to `MagickSetResolution',
`MagickPingImage' assumes that we are going to modify the image, and returns
the `MagickFalse' status.

Removing `MagickSetResolution' cures this problem.  but I hesitate to remove it,
because I don't know why it's here.  So at least moving `MagickSetResolution'
a few lines below and calling after `MagickPingImage' will allow the read-only
images to be correctly displayed:
