The blockers that will force gdk-pixbuf to rebuilt first will just
ensure there are no -lpng14 or -lpng15 entries in gdk-pixbuf-2.0.pc that
would break apps compile-time.

The rebuilding of gdk-pixbuf and cairo is still necessary early, because
apps using gdk-pixbuf to handle .png at buildtime AND runtime (mostly
gnome apps) will fail with message ".png: File type is not supported"
(Maybe not with this exact wording, but close to it.) that is an result
of condition where eg. cairo is built against png14 but gdk-pixbuf with
png15 or otherway around -- conflict
