[RFE] export w/o display

[Adam Di Carlo <adam onshore com>]

Using any version of dia I've ever seen, including 0.88.1, I note that
the export command, as in

  dia --export=figures/system-arch.png figures/system-arch.dia

requires the use of of an X11 display.

Is there any possibility of removing this requirement?  I produce
documentation from CVS, updated and built nightly from cron, and find
the idea of putting the converted file (here 'system-arch.png') in CVS
to workaround this problem somewhat distasteful.

Anyhow, the real reason for fixing this is that currently dia is not
really suitable for use in an automated context, and I think that may
convince some people not to use dia, and that would be a shame.

Please CC me on any replies, I'm not on this list.
