Ah, I thought I removed that from the CVS.  CVS log says in 2005
Hans updated that file to not-so-recent Pango API, but apparently
it's still lagging.

I suggest you through it away and start adding win32 support the
the pango-view in examples/.  You need to write a new
viewer-win32.c, and viewer-pangowin32.c that implement
pango-view's interface.  See viewer-main.c, viewer-x.c, and
viewer-pangoxft.c.  For bonus, update viewer-cairo to support
cairowin32 backend too.
