When trying to build the cairo-gtk2 toolkit with system cairo (for application
xulrunner, if that makes any difference), i got the following message :
make[5]: *** No rule to make target `../../../dist/lib/libmozcairo.a', needed by
`libgkgfxthebes.a'.  Stop.
make[5]: Leaving directory `/tmp/xulrunner-1.8.99+cvs20050826/gfx/src/thebes'

Going further by removing the mozcairo line in gfx/src/thebes/Makefile.in gets
to an other error, and then to another one when you try to fix the new one, and
finally build fine when you remove mozcairo, mozlibpixman and gfxshared_s (the
latter conflicts with stuff which gets put in libxul) from the SHARED_LIBRARY_LIBS.

I don't know if it still builds fine without those lines with the embedded
cairo, though. And i don't know if the gfxshared_s thing applies to other builds
than the xulrunner (well, libxul enabled) one.

Reproducible: Always

Ah I forgot this one:
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `../../dist/lib/components/libgkgfxcairo.a',
needed by `libxul.so'.  Stop.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/tmp/xulrunner-1.8.99+cvs20050826/toolkit/library'

It still refers to libgkgfxcairo, while it's libgkgfxthebes, now...

closing old bugs; trunk won't build with system cairo until trunk becomes an official release
