As indicated in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=367457
it has been proposed that the Massif plugin from Valgrind switch to
using SWTChart for it's charting/image generation to help downstream
consumers wishing to reduce their dependencies.

As an example, in Fedora, installing eclipse-valgrind brings in :
eclipse-{dtp,emf,gef}, fop, sac, batik, from its dependency on
eclipse-birt (which provides just the charting functionality).

SWTChart has been approved for use for the project and is available
in Orbit [1], and the code now sits in the branch feature/valgrind/no-birt.

What are everyone's thoughts on this proposed change?
