Thanks for the patch, Ian. However, there's a fundamental problem with it: It
generates a dependency on JDK 1.4 or later due to the use of ImageIO. FOP must,
for the time being, remain compatible with JDK 1.3. FOP's image package contains
adapters to several image libraries which can read GIF images. The problem is
that you cannot easily use them for this particular use case because they
currently create a decoded bitmap image as a byte array. It would have to be
converted into a BufferedImage and then written to a PNG through the ImageWriter
interface provided by XML Graphics Commons
(http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xmlgraphics/commons/trunk/src/java/org/apache/xmlgraphics/image/writer/).

I've started documenting requirements for an improved image adapter package:
http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/ImageSupport. But that's probably for
later since this will take some time to implement properly.
