The kdesdk rpm includes kcachegrind, but callgrind and graphviz are not in FC3, callgrind is the actual calltree generating backend for kcachegrind, while graphviz is used to draw the pretty calltree diagrams.
Are there existing reasons why they are not in FC ? oversights or is there licence issues, esp with graphviz ?

Don't know answers to your questions, but if graphviz has license/legal issues then we should remove it from Extras.

Debian has classified it as non-free for a long time. See:
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/graphics/graphviz.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2000/02/msg00399.html
I had thought there was more discussion about the graphviz license on debian-legal but couldn't find it in a few seconds of searching.

Graphviz will also generate some very nice diagrams for Doxygen, BTW.
You may find there are license issues. Debian only include graphviz in their non-free collection. There is an effort underway to make the license more acceptable, but this is in the hands of the AT&T lawyers and out of the control of the developers. All we can do is to tell them is that we want the license to be acceptable to the OpenSource community, which we have.
As to version, 1.10 is very old and graphviz-1.14 was just released yesterday, so please do upgrade.

There is a already a RFE for Callgrind in Bugzilla since last week: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=130645
