I have prepared updated packages for cairo and GTK+:
	http://malsain.org/~joss/debian/

It would be nice if the installer people could check that all udebs work
fine with this version, and that they can all be rebuilt. Theoretically,
there should be zero issue at runtime. As for building, cdebconf and
gtk2-engines will fail until we remove the -l flag, others should build
without a change.
