Seems like there is enough data in the header to read the image since other packages can, photoshop (with plugin), xnview, Houdini itself to name 3
It would be nice if imagemagick could too and just print a warning.

However I have now found a work around if imagemagick fails but it's slower than doing it directly with magick.

I cannot say what the developers will say. They usually hold to the proper format. But perhaps there is something in the documentation for this format that provides for more flexibility that was not included in the current code. The IM developers will need to look into this.

Is there a process for that to happen or do they just check this board?

They should just check this forum. But I will forward a note to them for you.

This looks like a bug in the SGI reader. Not sure why it is failing yet but we will have to investigate this.

EDIT: Found and fixed the issue. This will be resolved in the next version of ImageMagick.
