Erm.  Did you mean 1.5 instead of 1.9?  Because 1.9 is dead; branch-1-5
and HEAD are alive.

Good.  Please post the output of `make check' and your changes to
support SkyOS (to libtool-patches).

Probably either cairo has a `bootstrap' script to achieve that, or you
can call `autoreconf -vif' or similarly.  Make sure autoconf, automake
and libtool are all installed below the same prefix, otherwise you have
to make sure aclocal finds the libtool macros (by using its dirlist
feature).

Cheers,
