Thanks. I gave it a try and switched from using a file handle to using just a file name and still get an an error, albeit a different one:

Error b: Exception 430: unable to open file '/tmp/magick-K306MFDJ8ArD4Ytnu0O7O3MOC9CghbHa': No such file or directory @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/785

I'm not creating any temporary files there, so it must be the module which is trying to do that. It looks like the temporary file vanishes before it is used.
