(Note: I have yet to look at RT's graphviz integration.)

Perhaps an easy way would be to tell RT to use dot -Tsvg instead of
-Tpng?  Then the web pages would include SVG and be rendered client-side
(and thus be antialiased in Firefox, at least).

OTOH, this seems to be antialiased already (with graphviz 2.20):

    echo 'digraph { x -> y; }' | dot -Tpng | with-temp-file display

so perhaps you just need to upgrade your Graphviz?
I'm also running 2.2, and by default, it does output with anti-aliasing. But RT's implementation doesn't. I think this has to do with the perl module GraphViz, which handles integration with graphviz. I'm not sure the module can take advantage of anti-aliasing--but I don't know.
