I've been playing about with MRTG today
A patch against Hobbit RC6 is avaiable at http://www.hswn.dk/beta/postRC6-mrtg.patch
This adds the "mrtg" entry to hobbitgraph.cfg, changes the default "GRAPHS" setting in hobbitserver.cfg (just add ",mrtg::1" to the entry in your file), and makes bb-larrdcolumn recognize the "::1" syntax for Hobbit.
Install with cd hobbit-4.0-RC6 patch -p0 </tmp/postRC6-mrtg.patch make
Then stop Hobbit, do "make install" as root, and start Hobbit.

Will this interfere with bbmrtg.pl? I am currently using it with mrtg-rrd.cgi to generate graphs as needed.

I dont think it will interfere.
First, it only triggers if you actually configure MRTG to save the data it collects in an RRD-file in the Hobbit directory. Not something you would do by accident, I think.
Second, the way bbmrtg.pl works (as far as I know) is to send a status message that includes links directly to the MRTG-generated graphics. It doesn't use the Hobbit graph-tool.
So I don't think there will be any problem in using bbmrtg.pl with Hobbit after this.
