I didn't try without cygautoreconf, cygport insists (hardcoded) on using
--force in the autoreconf command. Using the following patch

--- /usr/bin/cygport.org        2008-03-17 17:30:33.745423700 -0400
+++ /usr/bin/cygport    2008-03-17 17:17:50.856572500 -0400

         export WANT_AUTOCONF=${WANT_AUTOCONF:-2.5};
         export WANT_AUTOMAKE;
-       /usr/bin/autoreconf --force -i --verbose || error "autoreconf 
failed"
+       /usr/bin/autoreconf -i --verbose || error "autoreconf failed"

         for d in . ${ac_subdirs}
         do

leads to a successful build of ImageMagick.
