Comment (by ryandesign):

 As far as I know, cairo, pango, and glib2 have always striven to be highly
 backward compatible, so I would most strongly oppose the creation of
 multiple segregated ports for them. It should completely suffice to have
 -devel ports for those wishing to explore new features or bug fixes, as we
 have already had for a long time.

 cairo 1.16.0 is the latest stable version; the port should be at that
 version. Hopefully the developers of gimp did not depend upon things not
 included in that version. If they did, then we should ask the developers
 of cairo to release 1.18.0 stable.
