You're welcome. But really, they should direct any ire at me.

Could you explain what you mean by that? Emacs should already prefer 
more-specialized code (if available) to libmagick.

I just now checked with splash.svg, and found that Emacs used libmagick instead 
of librsvg when both were available. I tracked this down to a bug in image.el, 
which I fixed by installing the attached patch into master. Is this the problem 
you were thinking of, or was it something else?
