To use the PHP extension for ImageMagick, I need to upgrade my server to ImageMagick version 6.2.4.

_{(source: gsp.com)}

However I have some legacy code that uses version 6.0.7

I saw a slashdot comment from 2006 about ImageMag开发者_运维问答ick being notoriously bad for backwards compatibility but I have no personal experience of this. Looking throught the archives it seems as though my current versionis from circa 2005.

Does anyone know if ImageMagick is now stable enough to upgrade without too much difficulty?
