I verified that a symlink allows transcode to compile on OSX 10.5.2:

/opt/local/lib# ln -s libMagickCore.1.dylib libMagick.dylib

checking whether imagemagick support is requested... yes
checking for pkgconfig support for imagemagick... yes
checking for Wand-config... /opt/local/bin/Wand-config
checking how to determine IMAGEMAGICK_CFLAGS... pkg-config
checking magick/api.h usability... yes
checking magick/api.h presence... yes
checking for magick/api.h... yes
checking how to determine IMAGEMAGICK_LIBS... pkg-config
checking for InitializeMagick in -lMagick... yes

imagemagick                    yes
