It may not be immediately obvious from the description of the USE
flag, since graphicsmagick choose not to add a local use flag
description that better describes its use, but if you read the ebuild,
you'll find that rather than "enabling support for imagemagick", the
flag "imagemagick" in this case means "enable imagemagick
compatibility", which I assume means that it will install the usual
set of tools (convert, identify, etc.) that imagemagick installs. 

Obviously this will cause a file collision if you also have
imagemagick installed. 

Cheers,
