I satisfied my requirements by writing a thin wrapper on GD::Graph.
Added the mouse-over tool-tip capability. I may add a right-click menu
to change the chart type from 'bars' to 'pie' etc.

I'm considering releasing it as Gtk2::Ex::Graph::GD. (assuming at some
point some one may want to write Gtk2::Ex::Graph::GnuPlot etc)

If no one has objections to that namespace, I'll get the code into
gtk2-perl-ex.sourceforge.net
