Does this take care of the Glyph rendering issues in the SVGs too? If
so, you would be my hero for the next 15 minutes. So serious.

> What is cairo
> =============
> Cairo is a 2D graphics library with support for multiple output
> devices. Currently supported output targets include the X Window
> System (via both Xlib and XCB), quartz, win32, and image buffers,
> as well as PDF, PostScript, and SVG file output. Experimental backends
> include OpenGL, BeOS, OS/2, and DirectFB.
>
> Cairo is designed to produce consistent output on all output media
> while taking advantage of display hardware acceleration when available
> (for example, through the X Render Extension).
>
> The cairo API provides operations similar to the drawing operators of
> PostScript and PDF. Operations in cairo include stroking and filling
> cubic Bézier splines, transforming and compositing translucent images,
> and antialiased text rendering. All drawing operations can be
> transformed by any affine transformation (scale, rotation, shear,
> etc.).

> Cairo has been designed to let you draw anything you want in a modern
> 2D graphical user interface. At the same time, the cairo API has been
> designed to be as fun and easy to learn as possible. If you're not
> having fun while programming with cairo, then we have failed
