Dear Ivan,

I apologize for skipping the Bugzilla "inspection" and R-devel testing
phase (I had only limited access to a Windows machine). However, my
colleague just installed R-devel, and cairo_pdf() works like a charm
again!

Many thanks for resolving this – I know it was driving people mad for
several months!

Best,
Jan
