I think we need to get away from code such as this (acinclude.m4):


  # For the case of apple-darwin, we don't want to check the
  # headers/libraries 'cuz the standard macros won't find them
  # anyway.
  #
  if test "${darwin}" = "yes"; then
    AC_DEFINE(HAVE_IMAGEMAGICK, 1, [Imagemagick image library])
  else
    AC_CHECK_HEADER(magick/api.h, use_imagemagick="yes", use_imagemagick="no")


And fix the auto-detect code so that it can find things properly on
OSX no matter which of the three install methods is used for the
libraries.

Help from OSX users, or better yet OSX users who are familiar with
autoconf/automake macros, is now sought.  This is a good time to fix
it:  I've been mucking with configure.ac/acinclude.m4 a lot over the
past few days and the weird syntax is fresh in my mind.  It won't
last long.
