Maybe I really don't get your point. I don't know about ImageMagick because as far as I am concerned there have not been any important features that made be want to use a newer version.

What I did want though, was newer versions of PHP, Python and GCC. They could be gotten through either the Red Hat Developer Toolsets (which by themselves are a great way of packaging the compiler because you could actually have different versions on one machine) or the IUS repos (as the acronym implies "inline with upstream stable", also a great achievement).
