 Hi,

 when building grass 7 I get the following error in g.cairocomp:
 {{{
 main.c: In function 'init_xlib':
 main.c:118: error: implicit declaration of function
 'cairo_xlib_surface_get_xrender_format'
 main.c:118: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
 make: *** [OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/main.o] Error 1
 }}}

 I have libcairo2-dev version 1.2.4, the fn is not found in
 /usr/include/cairo/*.h

 This change says that >=1.5.8 is now needed:
 http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/36349

 Could a check be added to ./configure to test for
 cairo_xlib_surface_get_xrender_format()?


 thanks,
 Hamish
