This seems to work rather well.  I tried the following:

#+begin_src org

* tikz with image magick
  The following is a simple figure generated using tikz:

  #+begin_src latex :exports results :results (if (and (boundp 'backend) (eq backend 'latex)) "latex" "file") :file test.png :imagemagick yes :iminoptions -density 600 :imoutoptions -geometry 400 :fit yes :noweb yes :headers '("\\usepackage{tikz}")
\begin{tikzpicture}
  \node[red!50!black] (a) {A};
  \node (b) [right of=a] {B};
  \draw[->] (a) -- (b);
\end{tikzpicture}
  #+end_src

#+end_src

and I get native tikz in the latex output and a png in the html output.
very nice!

I haven't done exhaustive testing so I don't know if the patch breaks
anything, mind you.

Thanks,
eric
