*opens a drawer* You can try this:
http://www.rosuda.org/R/Cairo_0.1-1.tar.gz

I'm using it for generating bitmap files (PNG), that's why only the  
image-backned is used. It should be easy to add other formats like  
PDF or maybe even other surfaces like Win32, Quartz or XLib, because  
the back-end part is modular, but I didn't bother (yet?).

Cheers,
Simon
