The problem is something to do with dynamic linking. I am sure of that.
When imlib can't load an image with one of the compiled in image
libraries, it falls back on the imagemagick or netpbm. If imlib fails to
dynamically load the image loading code for example, this is a case when
it will fall back on imagemagick.
I don't see this problem on my system, so am not sure what is causing it.
I will have to look into it further. It may have something to do with
version of python, operating system or version of dynamic linker -- I
don't know.
James.
