Nope, it still doesn't work.
PNG8 supports partial transparency (and has for a while). Internet
Explorer only supports PNG8 boolean transparency, though. This has
lead to limited use of partial transparency on the web.
A quick google search pulled up this bug from a while ago:

001484.html
I wonder if it's the same problem.

See the notes of various transparent modes in...
IM Examples, Montage, Background and Transparency Handling
http://www.cit.gu.edu.au/~anthony/graphics/imagick6/montage/#bg
| Here is my command:
| montage -verbose -geometry +0+0 -background "rgba(255,255,255,0)"
| world.pol.2700.png world.pol.2700.png png8:world.pol.2700.m.png
|
| You can get "world.pol.2700.png" from http://pricepages.org/temp/
| world.pol.2700.png
|
You can even get IM to get the image...
montage -verbose -geometry +0+0 -background None \
http://pricepages.org/temp/world.pol.2700.png +clone \
world.pol.2700.m.png
PS: PNG8 like GIF is a 256 color table limited image with a single
boolean transparency. So if you are playing with partical
transparency,
or resized images with transparency, DON'T USE IT.
