Re: [PATCH] Make sure to use Araxis' "compare" and not e.g. ImageMagick's

Please feel free to ignore the patch if you feel the heuristics is not
sufficiently safe. I'm currently unable to come up with a safer
solution while maintaining portability, i.e. not use "which" or doing
rather laborious string parsing on the output of "type".

How about looking at "compare --version"?
