I don't think there will be a 4.4.3 release, but I don't mind applying the patch.
For 4.6, we're getting away from imageObj::write() and recommending that modules
implement imageObj::getBytes() instead. It's less confusing. Only file-like
objects should be writing. The Python and Java mapscripts have getBytes for the
version 4.6. You could look at those for examples.

I will inform the developer of the name change. The 4.4.2 patch is only intended
as a sample until the 4.6 patch is available.

I think this method may be best left as 'write' as it is a file-like object.

I think this is a difference in usage style between Java/Python and Perl. With
Python it is more natural to do this
print imageObj.getBytes() # send image data to stdout
I looked again at the Perl ImageMagick API and that does indeed use something
more like
imageObj->write(STDOUT);
It is fine with me if you want to implement only the write method for Perl. The
sooner you can patch against the 4.6 beta 3, the better because I am running out
of time to help with this before the conference.
