What purpose would there be to having Cairo require DevIL, rather than
just having there be a middle layer shim library that can use DevIL to
load data into cairo surfaces/cairo patterns? There isn't anything
preventing you from creating cairo_image_pattern_create() on top of
existing public cairo APIs from another library. I wouldn't call it
cairo_ to avoid confusion, but something similar.
