Paul,
it is not a rebase error.
It is ImageMagick mishandling the missing font.

GraphickMagick equivalent is correctly handling the case and the
error message is more clear.

$ gm  montage -label "D Brausch Wedding,1951" zimg002.miff -font Arial 
-pointsize 20 -frame 40 -geometry +0+0 zimg002.png
gm montage: Unable to read font (arial.ttf) [No such file or directory].

The workaround for both "montage" and "gm montage" is to copy arial.ttf
in the current directory
something like
"cp /cygdrive/c/Windows/Fonts/arial.ttf ."

ImageMagick is also able to use the TTF font if installed in the X
directory  /usr/share/fonts/TTF and montage is run inside xterm
instead of mintty.
GM is not handling such case, but I have no time to investigate.

Regards
Marco
