For a fairly full set of features without LaTeX, see mimeTeX:
  http://www.forkosh.com/mimetex.html

If you cheat and make the image requests appear like web server
CGI requests by setting the right environment variables, you
could just exec mathTeX for high quality and fall back to running
mimeTeX if it fails.

Both are GPLv3 and probably severe overkill for plot labels.
