I have the installed port:

the command, 'which imagemagick' returns not found, and
graphiocsconvertoer.app, similarly cannot find imagemagick ..'in
/usr/local/bin'

How can I make the mac[ports installation avilable on a system-wide
basis?  For example, what would I symlink to, if i were to place a
symlink in /usr/local/bin?


All port files are in /opt/local by default, unless you change that path to somewhere else. You should have the file ~/.profile which will have altered your PATH to include /opt/local.

Mine looks like this:
# MacPorts Installer addition on 2009-02-24_at_21:16:33: adding an appropriate PATH var
iable for use with MacPorts.
export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
# Finished adapting your PATH environment variable for use with MacPorts.

# MacPorts Installer addition on 2009-02-24_at_21:16:33: adding an appropriate MANPATH
variable for use with MacPorts.
export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:$MANPATH
# Finished adapting your MANPATH environment variable for use with MacPorts.

If you do not have this file, you should read the docs on how to repair this issue
