You need gd-1.3 in order to create GIF files..
just downgrade to gd-1.3 your system and rebuild php with gd support.. and
you will have imagegif.

I believe the latest version of GD does not support GIFs. That functionality
has been removed because of patent problems. If you want to do GIFs you have
to use an older version of GD.
