Hmm, with the current CVS and my installed `convert' program (from
ImageMagick 5.5.7 03/11/05), I get the attached JPG image which has a
size of 69x47 pixels.  This is the smallest bounding box possible.

It seems that newer `convert' versions have changed the meaning of
`-crop'.  I've added `-trim' to pic2graph in the CVS.  Thanks for the
report.
