Yeah, I think James missed a couple of critial words here. What he asked
me in IRC was whether cairo could expose reference counts for cairo_t and
cairo_surface_t; cairo_surface_t already has reference counts inside, so
that would require only an external 'ref' function. Doing reference
counts for cairo_t would require additional mechanism, but not that much.
