This appears to be because of a couple of lines of code I added some time
ago without making sure they were inside of an #ifdef HAVE_IMAGEMAGICK
block.  Nobody else has apparently tried to build Xastir without ImageMagick
since then apparently.  Very unfortunate, because I don't have time to fix it 
right now.

The only suggestion I have for quick resolution of the problem is to install
ImageMagick (and its development headers), which is where the QuantumDepth
definition is.
