Vlad, the Sunbird Win32 tinderbox shows build errors after checkin of the Cairo update. Can you fix that for us?

Build error:
mozcairo.lib(cairo-win32-printing-surface.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp__GradientFill@24 referenced in function __cairo_win32_printing_surface_paint_linear_pattern

msimg32 needs to be added to the final link (or sunbird needs to switch to libxul) -- I wasn't sure where sunbird's app files lived; can you just add msimg32 to the final link makefile?

http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=mozilla/calendar/sunbird/app/Makefile.in&rev=1.52&mark=173#170 no?

And I presume that bug 397048 is saying that Firefox is equally busted for non-libxul.

Bug 397029 has the patch for Sunbird, and it only needs to be checked in.
