Our default packages CFLAGS are :
on x86 : -O2 -g -pipe -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions
-fomit-frame-pointer -march=i586 -mtune=generic
-fasynchronous-unwind-tables

and on x86-64 : -O2 -g -pipe -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions

and they overwrite default CFLAGS in an autoconf/automake setup.

Which is why we were the only one to see this problem.

So, I think we can say -fno-strict-aliasing can be removed from cairo
with my patch :)
