No.  That would be a completely separate error which does _not_ mention 
the case.  And it would show up when you install the packages.

In Splitoffs it's quite common to have the same DocFiles as the main 
package--they don't go into the same directory, however.  In this case 
it'd be e.g. /sw/share/doc/imagemagick/, 
/sw/share/doc/imagemagick2-dev/, /sw/share/doc/imagemagick2-shlibs/, ...

  What you are seeing might be due to having both 
%i/share/doc/imagemagick and /sw/share/doc/ImageMagick.
