Apparently CentOS 5.5 packages Cairo version 1.2.4.
Looks like "cairo_clip_extents" was introduced in Cairo snapshot version
1.3.2.
So, "cairo_clip_extents" was introduced in the development stream in
November 15th, 2006, four years ago, but the RHEL distro (and therefore,
CentOS) has not picked it up. Seems like RHEL/CentOS are as bad for
recent-era libraries as Debian Stable. (Matthew Flatt graciously added
compatibility with the old GTK-related library versions on the Debian
Stable distros that I tend to use.)
Looks like the recently released RHEL 6 has Cairo 1.8.8 or later (which
should be fine for DrRacket), but CentOS 6 is not yet available. I
don't know what Cairo version CentOS 5.6 will have.
