(Where to?) Yes, you're right. I'm being lazy here. I guess I could make cairo depend on the utf8 package. Or, even cruder, I could just copy the two functions into the corresponding cairo modules -- converting from utf8 is not that hard. The affected functions only concern the "toy" text functions of cairo. Still, point taken.
