This bug was reported to the Debian BTS.

"Subject line pretty much says it. Ordinarily this is a minor annoyance,
but Newegg's RMA e-mail contains a GIF for the barcodes. Attempts to
print from both evolution and eog both printed black rectangles, so I am
assuming the underlying library has the bug."

The bug was reported using version 2.12.1 but I have confirmed it with 2.17.0
(and eog 2.16.3). It happens with both transparent and non-transparent GIF
images.
