After some experimenting with SDL_Pango it really seems to be too old
and unmaintained. Also in order to use it nicely I have to write a C++
library around the C library, so I decided to rewrite it in C++ from
scratch. After some testing the cairo backend seems to be the nicest so
I'm now using that backend. I added autotools support and loonycyborg
added scons support (commented out at the moment). It would be nice if
somebody can add cmake support. I intend to commit my initial library
code soon so it can be shipped with 1.5.2. Then we can see how much
trouble the new library gives to the packagers.
