Excellent.

I don't like that part. Just copy from what we do with win32. That is:
CAIRO_BACKEND_ENABLE(win32_font, Microsoft Windows font, win32-font, WIN32_FONT, auto, [
use_win32_font=$use_win32
])
And there are reasons to build without quartz font backend: testing, for
example.

cairo-deprecated.h that is. Carl and I decided that it would be Ok to
also leave the old symbol in the binary... The main reason for trying
hard to not break anyone's system is the release of pango-1.20.0 just
last week. If it wasn't for that, we didn't have to maintain any
backward compatibility.
Can you also prepare a patch for Pango please?
