Ok, did some debugging and the culprit seems to be #colorReduced. The
GIF writing code sends this even when not necessary (e.g. when the Form
at hand is already an 8bit value). IMHO, for an 8bit Form created by a
GIF file, #colorReduced should be a no-op, but it seems it ain't. 

I'm not posting a patch because I don't know enough about how Form is
supposed to work, but hopefully someone will be able to detect a flaw in
#colorReduced :-)
