Why an unstable version?

The relevant code is

  PangoFontMap *
  pango_cairo_font_map_new (void)
  {
    /* Make sure that the type system is initialized */
    g_type_init ();

  #if defined(HAVE_CAIRO_ATSUI)
    return g_object_new (PANGO_TYPE_CAIRO_ATSUI_FONT_MAP, NULL);
  #elif defined(HAVE_CAIRO_WIN32)
    return g_object_new (PANGO_TYPE_CAIRO_WIN32_FONT_MAP, NULL);
  #elif defined(HAVE_CAIRO_FREETYPE)
    return g_object_new (PANGO_TYPE_CAIRO_FC_FONT_MAP, NULL);
  #else
    g_assert_not_reached ();
    return NULL;
  #endif
  }

which means you do not have any of the font backends
compiled in.
