I used xwd to take a screen dump, then imagemagick to trim and
save it as a gif.
When I tried to attach it to a message, mutt decided it was
"audio/basic", as it did with a jpeg of the same image.

iianm, mutt does not "decide" the file-type, mime does. you need to
adjust your mime settings.
In more detail:
This comes from the mime.types mapping, which is stored in
/etc/mime.types with personal overrides/additons in ~/.mime.types. This
is just a text file with an association of a MIME Content-Type to
various file extensions. Example line:
image/jpeg jpg jpeg jpe jfif pjpeg pjp
