The cairo stuff I did just replaces the drawing of the elements (UDraw...) and 
some stuff to prevent XOR drawing. It does not involve anything with respect to 
the toolkit.
In fact the drawing should now be toolkit independant (from an xcircuit 
perspective), since cairo is an abstraction layer for the drawing.
As for enabling cairo for Tcl/Tk I did not look into that yet, but it should be 
trivial to implement it.

I am now at work, but when I am home, I will also send a patch, that will use 
freetype and fontconcif for the font drawing.

Erik.
