Would any existing GraphicsMagick API users be offended if the content 
of magick/command.c and magick/command.h were moved into a separate 
library (GraphicsMagickCommand)?  This code primarily exists to 
support the GraphicsMagick 'gm' utility since it provides the 
functions necessary to support sub-commands like 'convert' and 
'mogrify'.

During the creation of GraphicsMagick from ImageMagick, the 
command-line parsing code was carefully segregated so that none of the 
rest of the code should depend on it.  The reason for the segregation 
is that command.c references every other symbol in the library so that 
if it is referenced, then every other object file in the library is 
referenced as well.

The ImageMagickObject DLL does use some of these interfaces.
