No doubt you are calling it with 

    [perl]
	$Tag->chart(@parms);
    [/perl]

Safe will not allow a runtime require, no matter what you do. You
would need to do:

UserTag chart Routine <<EOF
eval {
    require GIFgraph::bars;
};
if($@) {
	return sub {
	    ::logError("Cannot generate chart, GIFgraph module not installed: $@");
	};
}
sub {
	# Do some stuff with GIFgraph::bars;
}
EOF
