I'm OK with BSD for this.  And I understand that copy-pasting
boilerplate could mess things up ;-)

There is a 2999.13.* series of graphviz out, I haven't actually tested
this but I think for the limited part of the API that gets used it
remains the same.

When you get around to updating vacuum-cairo, it should then also dep
on vacuum-graphviz and use customise vacuumParams if need be and then
a custom call to graphToDotParams (that was the point of why I wrote
the graphviz usage like that; Don copied a lot of the old Dot usage
out just to be able to customise the attributes).

Well, you should probably mention Matt Morrow in Authors.txt ... ;-)
(and the only thing I did was remove the old manual Dot manipulation,
so it could be argued that my name isn't as important in there).
