[cairo] old win32 bug: drawing partial window content

[gurnett at telia.com]

I too also have this problem. Started when I went from borland 2009 to XE 
and updated to latest cairo. Never occured to me  that the problem could be 
with cairo, just thought something had changed with builder. Saw there was a 
patch but have no idea how to aplly it.
