Having now tried this, I can report that you'll simply get a
CAIRO_STATUS_INVALID_STRIDE error if you try this.

As such, it seems that you cannot make an image surface from an
existing block of image data, and will always have to create a
new buffer (Using the calculated stride), and copy your source
data into the temporary buffer (And then create the image surface
using that temporary buffer).

Anyone have any contradictions/clarifications?
