Ok - just a misplaced paren - the code (I just show the dvipng case,
but the imagemagick case will need it too) should look like this:


--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
               ...
               ((eq processing-type 'dvipng)
                (unless executables-checked
                  (org-check-external-command
                   "latex" "needed to convert LaTeX fragments to images")
                  (org-check-external-command
                   "dvipng" "needed to convert LaTeX fragments to images")
                  (setq executables-checked t))
                (unless (file-exists-p movefile)
                  (org-create-formula-image-with-dvipng
                     txt movefile opt forbuffer)))
               ...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

with two independent sexps: one to check for executables and one to check
for files. The misplaced paren caused the file check to be inside the
executable check, so it never produced any files after the first one.
