There's a typo in the patch (one comma is missing, my bad - that's what
happen when you commit code without testing whether it compiles or not).

Anyway, the code itself doesn't work for me - GTK+, when using a version of
cairo patched like this, fails to draw anything (all windows are empty).

So if you guys were concerned in any way that you're missing on anything -
don't be.
