Oups I missed that one... :-(
Would it be OK if I switch to agg-2.4 which is a fork that seems to be
still maintained and used in several other projects ?
( https://sourceforge.net/p/agg/svn/HEAD/tree/)

My idea behind agg was to have a "lightweight" gnash player for ARM9
platform which doesn't have OpenVG/GL accelerators. Do you think cairo
can do the job ? I got inspired from LFS which uses agg as gnash backend.

even if it's the default configure options ?
