+An extremely minimal wrapper for rsvg that can be used in windows as a drop-in replacement for rsvg might go as follows:
+
+    #some code to give rsvg.render_cairo(ctx) ability
+    #on windows.
+    import os
+    try:
+        import rsvg
+        WINDOWS=False
+    except ImportError:
+        print"Warning, could not import 'rsvg'"
+        if os.name == 'nt':
+            print "Detected windows, creating rsvg."
+            #some workarounds for windows
+            
+            from ctypes import *

+            l=CDLL('librsvg-2-2.dll')
+            g=CDLL('libgobject-2.0-0.dll')
+            g.g_type_init()

+            class rsvgHandle():
+                class RsvgDimensionData(Structure):
+                    _fields_ = [("width", c_int),
+                                ("height", c_int),
+                                ("em",c_double),
+                                ("ex",c_double)]

+                    return (svgDim.width,svgDim.height)

+                    z = self.PycairoContext.from_address(id(ctx))

+                    return rsvgHandle(file)
+    
+            rsvg = rsvgClass()
+
+This wrapper may be used to render svg's with the same syntax as rsvg.  i.e.:
+   
+    h = rsvg.Handle("box.svg")
+    s = cario.ImageSurface(cairo.FORMAT_ARGB32, 100, 100) 
+    ctx = cairo.Context(s)
+    h.render_cairo(ctx)
