I see a precompiled binary on the Imagemagick site.

How frequently does the name of the DLL change? If it changes with
each update, we should find a way of allowing users to still use
previous or next compatible DLLs. We don't want to require them to
upgrade all the time.

No, not that I know of. I think we should provide compatibility to
MSYS2 packages and to packages provided by Imagemagick themselves.
