That's precisely what is in place at the moment.

Although Keith made a suggestion that I liked, which is to change the
name from cairo-config.h to cairo-features.h.

And I've had one more thought about the name CAIRO_HAS_XLIB_BACKEND.
When cairo ends up supporting multiple font systems, we'll probably
want macros to indicate those as well. So, perhaps a better plan for
the names would be:

	CAIRO_HAS_XLIB_SURFACE
	CAIRO_HAS_FT_FONT
	etc.
