In the bug report i have explained that the version affected is 1.10.2-4 and that downgrading to 1.8.10-6 solves the problem. Later i have confirmed that the bug is also present in the latest version of libcairo2 in Unstable (which at the time of writing was 1.10.2-6). I believe that the message:
"Package: libcairo2 Version: 1.8.10-6 Severity: important" was automatically generated by Reportbug at the top of my message and the version specified was 1.8.10-6 because this is in fact what i was running when i was submitting the bug report (because i had downgraded to 1.8.10-6).
