OK, I forgot about that. Things are really afoot with the higher-level 
MagickWand API. Lots of rapid expansion in 5.5.8, including those 
functions and breaking the wand stuff out into a separate MagickWand 
library.

So you seriously need 5.5.8 or higher. I just looked and all I see now 
is 5.5.7 and 6.0.0. I learned all the above asking on the magick mailing 
list, and possibly someone directed me to an unpublished location for 
the 558 dlls. Or maybe in the past month they realized the changes were 
so substantial they deserved a jump to the 6... series.

So you are close! (Boy was that a weird problem on the .SO not loading! 
Hey, if I say "(load FTGL.so.just.do.it)", load it!!!!! :)
