Following cdl's recommendation finds
  http://www.lunabase.org/~faber/Vault/software/grap/

It compiles easily. Haven't done any tricks with it though. The webpage
shows some nice example graphs.

 ls -l grap

 file grap
grap: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.6.9, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux
2.6.9, stripped

For i386, code size should be smaller -- howmuch? 20%? (based on quick
sampling of a few /usr/lib{,64}/XXX files.

I have a fuzzy memory of the existence of some other simple image making
programs that can build gif (or maybe png?) from simple commands and data.

There's graphviz, but that's a big package.
