Comment(by ejtttje@…):

 Well Pango/Cairo carry a fair amount of dependencies with them.  Further,
 gnuplot also has interfaces to libpng and pdflib which provide alternate
 png and pdf functionality, so cairo is kind of superfluous.  So my
 motivation is really just that it's nice to have a backup route, in
 particular because pdflib is currently broken (or at least the universal
 build is)...

 I haven't tried the wxWidgets angle on this though, not sure if maybe
 these should be registered as dependencies for that target...
