I'm building and uploading the docs in a nightly cron on a linux box
that Fernando maintains.  Can you tell him what package(s) need to be
installed to insure cairo rendering so he can update the box?  The
anti-aliasing on some of the arrows looks pretty poor -- eg the arrow
from matplotlib.text.Text -> matplotlib.text.Annotation at
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/doc/html/api/artist_api.html.  Is it
better on your box?  Also, the start and end of the arrow locations is
pretty unsatisfying.  You would think they could hit the box edges...

Is there a way to inform dot/graphiz to not exceed a certain width?
If so, I think we should set it so the images are not wider than some
reasonable browser window for the html.
