The build should work with a locally installed Graphviz (`dot`) picked up from 
the environment, but as has been shown here, the output from different versions 
of Graphviz can vary. So yes, the build output can vary depending on the 
versions of tools used in the build.

To guarantee that builds from Oracle have a consistent output, we use defined 
versions of various tools, such as Graphviz, and for transparency we provide 
the scripts used to create those tool bundles in the make/devkit dir in the 
source tree, so that anyone who wants to know what we use can easily find out 
and replicate if desired.
