You neglected to give any information regarding your setup, see:

> Problem reports:       http://cygwin.com/problems.html

but I might hazard a guess that you're seeing this problem:

luckily this is solved by using a newer Imagemagick.

No, it's a link:

$ ls -l `which grace`
lrwxrwxrwx 1 quetschke Users 32 Jul 27 12:10 /usr/bin/grace ->
/usr/share/grace/bin/xmgrace.exe*
