I found a discussion that seems relevant:

​https://www-old.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/octave-maintainers/2010-January/014896.htm

​http://velveeta.che.wisc.edu/cgi-bin/hgwebdir.cgi/octave/diff/ad0b54ae206a/src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/__magick_read__.cc

and also: ​http://www.mail-archive.com/pld-cvs-commit@lists.pld-linux.org/msg219611.html

It seems there have been many changes to magick_read.cc, so perhaps rather than attempting to patch the current version there should be an octave-dev version.
