I have a problem caused by the fact that ImageMagick GIF files are generated without LZW compression. As I have a site targetted for mobile use, this problem renders many phones crashing due to larger-than-expected file sizes. I know the history of why this is not enabled by default in the ImageMagick binaries, but I guess that should be no problem for US-based LunarPages any more.

Any chance that ImageMagick could be recompiled with --enable-lzw? See bullet 30 of the ImageMagick FAQ at:
http://studio.imagemagick.org/www/FAQ.html

30. Why are my GIF files larger than expected?
LZW-compression was not enabled when ImageMagick was built.
Grab the source and configure with the --enable-lzw option.
