If you try to block select text with the cairo build there is a bit of an unintuitive spin-off of the text rendering. Instead of having to just select the displayed text you actually have to select the entire area of the old-style text, which isn't apparent until you move the text and see the old-style rendering.
I've attached a screenshot to show what I mean. Left is attempting to block select the text - text stays unselected. Right shows the actual text and the associated area that needs to be block selected for correct text selection. I suspect this is a general issue with the cairo/pango build (not just Win32 binaries).
