Hi,

I tested in IM 6.4.1-1 Q16-hdri:

convert -size 100x100 gradient:firebrick-none gradient_trans.png

and

convert -size 100x100 gradient:firebrick-none gradient_trans.gif


The first one in png format works fine, but the second one in gif 
format does not produce the same results.  Seems like it generates 
the top half, but goes completely transparent for the bottom half.

I would suggest reporting it as a potential bug on the Bug forum at
http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewforum.php?f=3&sid=3aff57d6310a6278fd8c3e93fb4f3b32
