For now it's there if you want it. I added it because I saw during the 
configure phase a module was looking for it. It wasn't a fatal dependency 
which is why it's optional. 

Your question did prompt me to look at the ImageMagick compile log and I 
cannot find that in there. It's possible I added this to ImageMagick 
mistakenly. I will look further into that.

AFAICT and see, on my system there has been no issues with XOrg. Has it caused 
problems for you? Looking in the XOrg source tree there is a "extras/xpm" 
section. Looking in there, it appears the xpm module I made and the source 
tree are the same. So maybe the problem I saw was not xpm but the configure 
process of whatever the module was that I cannot remember right now.

I know very little about 7.0 and only recently discovered their plans so at 
this point cannot really say. If there is a problem with the xpm module I 
have no problem at all with yanking it out.

Sorry for the delay in answering. Was deconstructing a bathroom this weekend.
