I wonder how is one supposed to infer the answer from the
ugly list of commands and debug prints of your amazing tool.

To the original poster:

Pango can be built with various backends (Xft, Win32, ...),
Cairo is one of them.  So while Pango itself can be built
(and was built) without Cairo support, Gtk+ 2.10 requires
Cairo.

Therefore you have to install Cairo and rebuild Pango.
