I managed to compile it successfully with pango-cairo support by editing the
configure script and adding the pangoxft module to the pkg-config list:
%diff -c configure.bak configure
*** configure.bak 2011-05-31 16:16:55.000000000 +0200
--- configure 2011-05-31 16:17:21.000000000 +0200

$as_echo "$r_cv_has_pangocairo" >&6; }
if test "x${r_cv_has_pangocairo}" = "xyes"; then
modlist="pangocairo"
! for module in cairo-xlib cairo-png; do
if "${PKGCONF}" --exists ${module}; then
modlist="${modlist} ${module}"
fi

I do not know if it is an error in the configure script or just a
peculiarity of my installation. All these libs (pango, cairo, gtk, glib)
have been installed manually from tarballs.
Best,
