AC_CHECK_FUNC([MagickExportImagePixels])

You can set the (shell) variable "LIBS" before the use of AC_CHECK_FUNC
to specify whatever libraries are necessary, if they aren't already
available there, e.g. something like:

   OLD_LIBS="$LIBS"
   LIBS="$LIBS_FOR_IMAGE_MAGICK $LIBS"
   AC_CHECK_FUNC([MagickExportImagePixels])
   LIBS="$OLD_LIBS"

[The emacs configure.in should contains lots of examples of similar
tests you can look at...]
