Thanks for digging this out. As this is triggered by newer version of
cairo, I suppose something changed in cairo that requires the surface to
be marked dirty. I'll try to check what changed between 1.8 and 1.10 for
that, and if it's not intrusive, may just change it on cairo's end (in
the backport). I'll follow-up when I have more details.
