A few weeks ago, SagCAD was mentioned (here or yahoo/Turbocnc):

It also can (supposedly) create or import DXF and
output gcode.

I downloaded and compiled it (in Linux/Mandrake 9.1) and it seemed to work
just fine. In fact, I was really impressed. Hard to understand
without docs (they are Japanese and German), so I didn't get anything
useful done. Need more time for playing with it.
However, a pal had an initial stab at translating them into
English (still a work in progress, but usable).
If anyone wants that URL (for the english docs), please email
me offline.
