I don't understand how these two consecutive patches works.  Assume I don't 
have "convert". Before the patches Emacs would complain, and installing 
ImageMagick would fix the complaint.  After, Emacs will complain about not 
finding "convert", but after I install ImageMagick Emacs will keep complaining, 
because the defcustom will still be nil.  Is this intended?  Or am I 
misunderstanding something?

Cheers,
Clément.
