Eh, dot is part of graphviz, which is a dependency of lots of other
software packages out there... I rarely ever invoke dot manually, but I see
it running all the time whenever it gets called by doxygen to autogenerate
a package's documentation, and, considering how many users doxygen has,
that's kind of a lot. I'm guessing dot's number of users is probably larger
than small, too.
