Contact me about this by e-mail, jason@gossamer-threads.com - I'll certainly consider adding the changes to the next version.
The problem with this is that Image Magick is by no means a standard module, and I've also encountered problems where just _loading_ Image::Magick will cause Perl to segfault under high memory usage. However, as an optional feature that can be enabled/disabled through a setup variable, this is a very nice feature to have.
