Add -debug trace to identify where ImageMagick is hanging. Your command works for us under Linux / Windows. We have not tried under Mac OS X yet.

Installed the released version of IM 6.5.6-6 Q16 Mac OSX Tiger.

convert -version

This seemed to still hang:
convert -background lightblue -fill blue -font Candice -pointsize 72 label:Anthony label.gif

So added -debug trace :

convert -debug trace -background lightblue -fill blue -font Candice -pointsize 72 label:Anthony label.gif

Last few lines before hangs:

Addendum:

I ran it again with -debug trace and waited a while, then it started up again. So I took out the -debug trace and ran it again and it started working again.

time convert -background lightblue -fill blue -font Candice -pointsize 72 label:Anthony label.gif
