Wikimedia uses rsvg, so that would be your best choice -- that way
your PNG has a fairly good chance of actually looking the same as
Wikimedia's rasterization.  rsvg is installed on nightshade, and since
it's installed on willow and wolfsbane I assume it's installed on all
the Solaris servers as well.
