Kivio is KDE's diagramming program with stencils.

Dia is GNOME's diagramming program, but it's really lacking
and fairly stalled.

If you just want a "vector-graphics" editing program, then
OpenOffice.org/StarOffice's Draw is good enough for me.  I
use it for my diagrams used in my CMP Media publications,
both JPG (web) and EPS (print) versions.  E.g.,  
  http://www.samag.com/documents/s=9408/sam0411b/0411b_f7.htm
 

It can connect lines to boxes and automatic retracing, just
like typical diagram programs.  Draw, however, is lacking in
stencils -- even StarOffice's added complement is rather
weak.
