Both the libgd-gd2-noxpm-perl and libgd-gd2-perl variants of this bug
have the same cause: the regression test files need to be updated for
libgd 2.1.0-rc1.  I've verified that the result of doing so is visually
indistinguishable, and filed an upstream bug report with the files in
question:

I think it would be reasonable to add these files to the Debian packages
(renaming them to the appropriate next in sequence, so you end up with
t/test.out.2.png-2, t/test.out.3.png-2, t/test.out.4.png-3,
t/test.out.5.png-2, t/test.out.6.png-2, t/test.out.7.png-2, and
t/test.out.9.png-3) and add them to debian/source/include-binaries.  I
can't really usefully attach a patch since binary files are involved,
but you can pull them from the link above.

Thanks,
