Comment (by macports at flyn.org):

 Okay, good. I think we've got this bug figured out then.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 I would like to see a cairo variant build the Quartz font backend without
 the freetype backend. Once the Quartz GTK2 stack is stable, freetype
 should be unnecessary (two font engines is quite redundant) unless one
 wants to use X11 applications for their network-centricity. I think using
 "quartz" (build quartz & avoid freetype) and "no_x11" (avoid X11) like the
 GTK2 port will avoid confusion. GTK2's Portfile even says "cairo must be
 installed with the quartz variant enabled."
