Safari does not use the GIF decoder in the WebKit tree, but rather uses
CoreGraphics.

Other ports, such as Chromium and the Cairo port, do use the GIF decoder in
the tree.  I'm not sure we've ever compared against libgif.  I don't know
what its performance, compatibility and security characteristics are.
