[cairo] fflush in copy_page

That's very good!  Would it possible to write the code
so that it could be used by other scheme
implementations, too?

Assuming your users call 

 (call-with-output-file
  (lambda (port)
    (cairo-png-surface-create 
     port 
     (cairo-get-std-format) 
     10 10)
    ...
   ) "/tmp/test.png")
 
Your C code would extract the FILE pointer from the
port and then call cairo_png_surface_create().
It also registers a callback that is called when the
scheme implementation wants to close the port (because
of call/cc we cannot close the port when the user
escapes from the above procedure).  So shortly before
the port is gc'ed, the callback is called and the file
is closed.

How do you implement ports?
