As far as I know, there are no archives of binary versions of IM. The source code archives are usually just the 6.x.x-10 versions.

We don't archive binaries, and only archive the ImageMagick-x.y.z-10 sources. If you need a particular
version that is not "something-10", you can download the source from the SVN repository and build it. According
to the ChangeLog, the one you are interested in is "2013-11-08 New version 6.8.7-5, SVN revision 13682."

I'm a little curious about why you would need that particular version and not the most recent, which is 6.8.8-2 and is
still available for download from the ImageMagick.org and SourceForge.net sites.

I can answer that question - it seems to be one of the issues when trying to use php_imagick on IIS. PHP 5.3 for IIS is compiled using MSVC 2008, whereas the latest version of ImageMagick appears to using MSVC 2010. From some of the forums I've read, the two versions of MSVC don't talk nicely to each other. This is the reason I've been looking for legacy versions (without any luck, I might add), because I'm at wit's end trying to figure out why php_imagick fails to load.
