Hmm. Some additional information might help. (1) It seems I may have been premature in my assumption (based on watching the installation in progress) that it had updated ImageMagick v6.1.8. It had, rather, updated the shlibs for 6.1.8 which I apparently had not removed. (2) After shooting off the email I explored some more. I found that v6.2.8-1002 was available for Intel Macs, which it wasn't a few days ago. I immediately installed it upon discovery. (And subsequently recompiled my program with it's benefits.)

The update-all feature is very handy. It's not perfect, as evidenced by some of the FAQ's on the fink site. But it can be a tremendous time saver.
