Yeah... imagemagick is by far the best option. Kind of the industry
standard, so to speak. Chances are, it's already on your machine -- it ships
standard with most linux distros these days.

PHP has a bunch of nice libraries for both this and GD, but you'll probably
have to do cfexecutes to manipulate imagemagick from the commandline in CF.
(Which isn't actually that evil...)

That statement is true only if there is no current software installed
on the server that resizes images...<g> There is no built in CF
functions to resize images though.

ImageMagick is another good option that I didn't see mentioned yet.
