           Summary: Win32 Backend Broken After Fallback Change
           Product: cairo
           Version: 1.9.2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: medium
         Component: win32 backend
        AssignedTo: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org
        ReportedBy: bfulgham at webkit.org
         QAContact: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org


It turns out that the Mozilla project has been unable to use Cairo since the
early part of 2010 due to a change cairo-surface-fallback.c.

(see
"http://cgit.freedesktop.org/cairo/commit/?id=3b1c0a4bd66660780095e6016e3db451f34503a3")

While the commit message indicates that this would only impact the GL backend,
it turns out that the win32 backend is heavily impacted by this change.

Ultimately, the correct resolution is to fix the win32 backend so that it does
not need to use fallbacks.
