	While my experience with software-development on OSX (only OpenGL, no
cairo at that time) is more than three years old, I think you can easily
blend cairo and OpenGL on OSX using cairo's image-surfaces and create
OpenGL texture-objects from those without the need for X11.

Have a look at the sourcecode of gl-cairo-cube at:

	http://cairographics.org/OpenGL

	You might even get a better integration using the Quartz-backend of
cairo (configure options --enable-quartz or --enable-nquartz). But I
have no idea about the state of those backends.

Best regards...
