Yeah - this looks like a lib linking issue, which might indicate that
the packages were built on a newer OS build or something.

If upgrading the system is out of the question (or doesn't solve
this), you may be looking at building and replacing these packages
from the pkgsrc.

Assuming you have an up-to-date pkgsrc tree for your system available
in /usr/pkgsrc (obviously use discretion, and adjust for your
use-case):

cd /usr/pkgsrc/graphics/php-gd
/opt/local/bin/bmake PKG_PHP_VERSION_DEFAULT=83 replace clean

cd /usr/pkgsrc/graphics/php-imagick
/opt/local/bin/bmake PKG_PHP_VERSION_DEFAULT=83 replace clean
