Yes, most likely.  The libtool version used in Imagmagick 6.2.5 is
rather old.  libtool-1.5.20 is current.  We have a few improvements in
our CVS HEAD development tree for AIX not present in the 1.5.x branch,
so:
  if you re-libtoolize Imagemagick with 1.5.20 (you'll need the other
  autotools as well), it works with runtimelinking:
     configure LDFLAGS=-Wl,-brtl
  and it may work even without it (but I'm not sure of that; I
  have tested that extensively only with CVS HEAD).
