Hi all,

Here is a "diff -N -u" updating cairo to 1.0.4.

More importantly, I have written a (rather simple)
workaround to
support PseudoColor and StaticColor modes on X11. It is not
too fast,
especially on a remote display, but at least it does not
crash (I
hope). It should even produce reasonnable output, provided
that
colormaps are not changed too much after the first calls to
cairo
drawing functions. It might even work on
StaticGray/GrayScale
displays.

I have tested it on macppc with both wscons and ati drivers,
with
local server, through "ssh -X" and "ssh
-Y".  Sample code for testing
can be found at:

http:
//webcvs.cairographics.org/cairo-demo/X11/

Please test and report, especially those who are stuck with
8 bit
displays.  I do not plan to write something more
complicated/efficient
for now. So, if someone is interested in improving that fix,
please do
so.

Eric.
