The vm folder here :
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robert.marshall15/gif-bug.gz

contains a .gif that doesn't display properly (at least in emacs 21.2)
if vm-mime-use-image-strips is set to t
Note that this message will _crash_ some earlier versions of emacs

I see a zebra crossing effect with the (mostly) black gif being
interspersed with strips of the white frame background

If I set this variable to nil the problem does not occur

Also the documentation for this variable

...have the ImageMagick programs 'convert' and 'identify' installed;
`vm-imagemagick-convert-program' and `vm-imagemagick-identify-program

should read

have the ImageMagick programs 'convert' and 'identify' installed;
`vm-imagemagick-convert-program' and `vm-imagemagick-identify-program'
