Blender never supported GIF directly, at best via QuickTime or similar
approach, so that part must have been touched in some way (maybe
disabled during compilation, or due all the work to enable FFMPEG in
other plataforms). You could report it as bug if you are using
official 2.42, and older version work fine.

You [c|sh]ould use PNG anyway, that one is directly supported for many
versions and in all plataforms, compresses as GIF or even better (when
comparing still indexed images).
