Rob: My understanding is that for the wayland sample clients (weston), cairo-gl is optional, and for the wayland backend of gtk it is required.
In the wayland build instructions for cairo-gl: "The Wayland clients can render using cairo-gl, but fall back to software when cairo-gl is not available.

I believe this is all that's necessary for wayland to work with the existing Precise gtk packages. Wayland has one released version, 0.85, which is in the precise archives: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wayland/ I'm told gtk 3.4 is (and will remain) compatable with it. Since gtk 3.4 is apparently already packaged for Precise, all that remains to be able to use some gtk applications via wayland is this build flag.
