Please note that this will work *only* when ImageMagick is built
with `--without-gslib'. In that case ImageMagick is not linked
against gslib and ghostscript is directly invoked via `gs' or
similar.

If ImageMagick was built `--with-gslib' then no `gs' is invoked
and there is no delegation, so the problems described by Tavis can
be reproduced with that delegate policy rule as well.


It is probably safer to follow the workaround described in:
