cairo/BUGS
Carl Worth 3a29d7a531 Track pixman fixes to PIXMAN_FORMAT_NAME_*.
Explicitly add cases for all enum values to eliminate compiler warnings.
Remove proposal for surface_clip interface as cairo_clip should be able to cover this case now.
Added bug concerning negative ref_counts.

Splines are not dashed.

The polygon tessellation routine has problems. It appears that the
following paper has the right answers:

Finite Precision Output, Computation Geometry Theory and
Applications, 13(4), 1999.

Stroking a self-intersecting path generates the wrong answer, (in
mostly subtle ways). The fix is to tessellate a giant polygon for the
entire stroke outline rather than incrementally generating trapezoids.

Cairo is crashing Xnest with the following message:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 72 (X_PutImage)
Serial number of failed request: 28
Current serial number in output stream: 29
confirmed on a quite default install of debian unstable.

cairo_scale_font modifies objects that the user expects to not change. For example:
cairo_font_t *font;
cairo_select_font (cr, "fixed", 0, 0);
font = cairo_current_font (cr);
cairo_scale_font (cr, 10);
cairo_show_text (cr, "all is good");
cairo_set_font (cr, font);
cairo_scale_font (cr, 10);
cairo_show_text (cr, "WAY TOO BIG!!);
We could fix this by not storing the scale in the font object. Or
maybe we could just force the size to its default after set_font. Need
to think about this in more detail.

cairo_show_text is not updating the current point by the string's advance values.

Caps are added only to the last subpath in a complex path.

ref_counts will go negative if destroy is called with ref_count ==
0. We noticed this is cairo_surface.c but it likely happens in several
places.
