I don't know.  Hopefully you get answer.  Would it hurt anything to try it?

Slackware 10.2  I just grepped the pkg and found 13 in /usr/bin

You *could* (though this likely be the hard way to do it) make sym links 
in /usr/bin pointing to wherever these actually are on your system.

ln<space>-s<space>where_mogrify_really_is<space>mogrify

Too much work to sym link each/all 13 of these --
unless ( Perl_is_used ) { print "Perl makes it easy\n";}

Better off to get it how you requested up above.
