A Call For Improving Cairo Rendering With Its Own Test Suite No Longer Even Passing

While Federico was investigating some Cairo crashes, he realized Cairo's very thorough test suite isn't even passing itself. It's not even passing with Cairo's pure software-rendered test suite that should theoretically always be working.
