These notes speak of a "Pango 1.10".  Has this been released 
anywhere?

It would be nice to have the new cairo/pixman dependency properly 
registered via pkgconfig.  The Gtk dependencies directory contains 
cairo but not libpixman.  Cairo builds and installs OK without 
pixman, but then the pango (1.9.1) build fails for lack of pixman 
(though this is not flagged by configure).

One further compatibility issue: the app that I have built and run 
OK (without warnings) using gtk 2.6, now shouts repeatedly, when 
built against 2.8:

Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_drawable_get_colormap: assertion 
`GDK_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)' failed

Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_window_set_back_pixmap(): pixmap must have a 
colormap

Any suggestions what's going on here?
