I of course see a complete PITA approach that involves cutting & pasting
with GIMP. But I want something like ffmpeg to do it for me on a big stack
of images. Anyone have any batch encoders? thanks.

You can do that with a tool from the ImageMagick
package, convert, I think.

I don't know, if it handles GIF as an output format, but I found transcode
quite comfortable some time ago (AFAIK commandline only). But I don't know
about its current status.

And then there's 'gifsicle' - I used it some time ago to create the animated
gifs at http://www.pavium.info/Eclipse/eclipse1.html (and following) but
since an animated gif simply concatenates the static images, a big stack of
images would give you a big output file.
