I built that once upon a time for the MRTG web page SNMP traffic grapher
package.  It is doable, though I don't remember having all of the add-on
libraries that you listed.  Perhaps GD has been enhanced since then.

You're running a fairly old version of Perl/iX (5.004_04).  You may need to
update Perl/iX to my most recent release (5.005_03).  You may be
experiencing the DynaLoader bug that I fixed in 5.005_02.  Quoting from
http://www.bixby.org/mark/perlix.html:

Change History

    November 20, 1998
        Updated to version 5.005_02.
        Fixed a DynaLoader bug that was unable to load symbols from relative
path name libraries.
        Fixed a .xs compilation bug where the mpeixish.sh include file
wasn't being installed into the proper directory.
        All bugfixes will be submitted back to the official Perl developers.

        The current incarnation of the POSIX filename extended characters
patch is now MPEKXJ3A.
