This was a color quantization problem that was fixed in later IM's

Download and install the latest release.

In the latest IM
   convert -size 1x256 gradient: gradient.gif

will produce an image with 256 pixel, each a different color.
Using the 256 color limit of GIF file format.

EG this should produce the number 256 (color count)
  convert -size 1x256 gradient: gif:- | identify -format %k -
