is bigger than one person can do. This would allow other people to help.
Sure, I get that. Just never been done in MacPorts before, so I don't know
if the admins would allow that.

I suppose if someone knew for sure that every port that uses ImageMagick
works great with v7, and that is all nailed down and verified, there might
not be.
However this issue has so much history, and homebrew still maintains an
ImageMagick v6 formula, so you might find that a difficult buy-in without
a lot of proof. A bridge too far, perhaps.
