Cannot install older version of ImageMagick via Homebrew

I need to install ImageMagick 6.5.8 (or earlier might do), but even when I checkout an earlier commit, it installs the latest version (6.6.9-4). I did this: 

$ git checkout -b im-6.5.6 ff414bb

(then confirmed that the working tree shows the correct version of imagemagick.rb, with @url = a .tar of version 6.5.6-5) 

$ brew install imagemagick

(and it says Checking out tag 6.6.9-4 and then proceeds to install that version)

Any help would be appreciated. Thx.

Hope you managed to find a solution, if not. Heres one that worked for me on another related issue. 

brew install https://github.com/adamv/homebrew-alt/raw/master/versions/imagemagick-ruby186.rb

This will install ImageMagic 6.5.9-8
