The problem is that IM 4.2.9 always strips it, and IM 5.x.x only strips
it when supplied a specific parameter (+profile '*'). And there seem to
be other variants as well. I'm not so sure that G1 will work correctly
with IM 4.2.9, has anyone checked it? Here IM 4.2.9 with +profile '*'
works totally wrong (it seems to scan all files in the current directory,
creating different <file>.jpg.XX files as output)..

So even if we always want to strip them, we have to do differentiate.
