This happens when you configure cairo without PNG:

configure: WARNING: Could not find libpng in the pkg-config search path
configure: WARNING: *** To run the tests, cairo must be built with png support ***
...
the following features:
  PNG functions: no
...

But when building with jhbuild it is very easy to miss those lines. Took me lots
of time to spot the problem. I suggest that the configure script should fail
unless invoked with --disable-png when it can't find libpng.
