Are there any graphics/ruby-RMagick user?

I'm tired to maintain RMagick package, because ImageMagick is too buggy and
unstable!  Functionally change has been occured even between patch level bump,
not major, minor, nor micro revision!  RMagick chatch up to those changes,
but then ImageMagick's function has been broken, so RMagick's test script
dump core, and so on.  It's hard to find good combination of the two.

I may take this opportunity to use GraphicsMagick instead of ImageMagick.
If I do such a change, you can't use ImageMagick's specific functions.
If some users need such functions, I introduce a option to select
backend library (default is GraphicsMagick, I don't maintain ImageMagick
positively).
