Very strange varying results

[Velin]

Hi everyone.

I've recently installed the latest versions of ImageMagic and Imagic, and at first glance everything appears to be in order.
I can access the Imagick class, create thumbs and write new images just fine.

However, when I attempt to use other functions, for example roundCorners(), I get seemingly random success. Only every other reload produces round corners.
All other reloads don't produce any error, the thumb is created, written and displayed perfectly fine, only without roundCorners.

I can produce similar varying results with just about every single example I've found on Mikko's blog: http://valokuva.org/

It can work fine five reloads in a row, but then suddenly stop working for the next five reloads and magically start working again a few times before failing again.
That has me going pretty crazy, as you can imagine.



Example:
Image reflection example from Mikko's blog: http://valokuva.org/?p=82
First try I get the correct result.
2nd page reload, same result.
3rd page reload i get this: http://velin.dk/straw_sample_1.png

More reloads seem to produce the odd result with the yellow border roughly on every third reload.
It doesn't seem to matter how long I wait between the reloads.


About my test setup:
OS X Leopard (10.5.6)
PHP 5.2.5
MAMP

Imagick info from phpInfo():
imagick module version 2.2.2
imagick classes Imagick, ImagickDraw, ImagickPixel, ImagickPixelIterator
ImageMagick version ImageMagick 6.5.1-0 2009-04-30 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org
ImageMagick copyright Copyright (C) 1999-2009 ImageMagick Studio LLC
ImageMagick release date 2009-04-30
ImageMagick Number of supported formats: 190


I have tried
Reinstalling MAMP
Restarting MAMP
Reinstalling both Imagick and ImageMagick
Recompiling Imagick
Rebooting... Not sure why
Changing MAMP envvars to include: export PATH=”$PATH:/opt/local/bin:/usr/local/bin”


I am looking for any ideas and thoughts you may have, or even just some sympathy for how ridiculous a problem this is to spend the better part of two days on solving.

Thanks for your time.

Bump.

This is still a major problem for me.

Please, any ideas?
