Summary: Gerbv exits on print

Initial Comment:
If I try to print from gerbv 2.0.1, it exits, with an error on the terminal:

gerbv: /build/buildd/cairo-1.8.6/src/cairo-surface.c:817: 
_cairo_surface_set_device_scale: Condition `status == CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS' 
failed.
Interrupted

(raw translation of Hungarian error message)

If I print to file (via the print dialog), it works file, but if I choose a 
real printer, it exits.

I'm using the Ubuntu 9.04 (64bit) package of gerbv 2.0.1, but the error occours 
also if I build 2.3.0 from source. My cairo version is 1.8.6-1ubuntu2.

Thanks for the help.

Message:
I tested printing with Inkscape (iirc it also uses cairo), and it works
fine.
I could only test gerbv with gerber files exported from Diptrace, under
wine, the error occurred with all files.
I also tried printing with two printers (altough both use the hp driver)

It's not a problem tough,  since that I managed to print directly from
Diptrace. I just thought it worth mentioning.
It seems logical that it's not related to gerbv, since I tried two
versions with no success. Thanks for your help.

Message:
Andras,
    Thanks for the bug report.  Does this bug happen on just one gerber
file, or does it always happen on any files?  Are you able to print from
any other GNOME applications?
    If you don't get the problem when you print to file, then it's most
likely a bug in cairo or GTK or your print driver, since all we do in gerbv
is call the gtk_print API and it does all the rest of the work (even if you
print to file).  Let me know your thoughts.

Cheers,
Julian
