Those look recently added, (for the new blend-mode stuff). So it looks
like someone didn't realize we have the cairo-xlib-xrender-private.h
magic, (which isn't too surprising since it stays quiet and does its
job without being noticed).

We'd definitely appreciate any help with the small additions needed to
cairo-xlib-xrender-private.h. The hard work is mostly in place
already, so hopefully there's not much more needed than andding a
couple of lines like:

       #define someFunctionName	some_consume_macro

Damian, you're in a nice place for working on this since you've
actually got a system with the old headers, (and some interest in
making it work). So if you could help at all, that would be
appreciated.

Do let us know if you have any further questions.

And have fun with cairo!
