I will take another look at the ImageMagick test, but I'll be honest:
Those variables are detected by asking ImageMagick what it needs.  I'm
disappointed that the magick-devel RPM doesn't require the bzip2-devel
RPM, because that's where the dependency lies.

Sometime in the next week, expect a new-and-improved ImageMagick
configure bit which reports errors more accurately.
