it turns out that selfupdate from the latest Porticus DOES NOT WORK.  i do
have it set to selfupdate upon launch - before that pref changes, it seemed
to selfupdate fine.  I'll report this to them.

your suggestions successfully permitted me to upgrade openssl. i assume it
will also permit me to install imagemagick.  THANKS VERY MUCH!
