Looks like you have permission problems. Take a look at the full path /usr/local/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.9/* and make sure all directories and files are readable by world.

From a system admin point of view it means you used a bad umask for your root account. Root should use a umask of 022, most user account use
a umask of 077 or 027.
