[Pkg-gmagick-im-team] Bug#685903: libmagick++5: Fails an assertion due to OpenMP related problem

[Willi Mann]

Package: libmagick++5
Version: 8:6.7.7.10-3.1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream patch fixed-upstream

On some PNG images, ImageMagick fails with an assertion in the read method.
This happens because ImageMagick does not determine the maximum number of
threads in a uniform way. In my case, this broke a django web application,
so this problem could be used to conduct a DoS attack in some environments.

I have reported the problem upstream at 

http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=21741

It turned out that the problem has been fixed after the release that's 
currently in Debian wheezy.

Could this problem be fixed please for wheezy?

Patch extracted from upstream SVN attached.
