Thanks a lot for your reply! Unfortunately, continuing the same procedure and ending up having made unavailable the following functions:
in cairo.rkt: cairo_clip_extents cairo_pattern_get_color_stop_count cairo_pattern_get_color_stop_rgba cairo_pattern_get_rgba cairo_pattern_get_surface ( cairo_pattern_get_linear_points cairo_pattern_get_radial_circles in pango.rkt: pango_layout_iter_get_run_readonly pango_language_get_default pango_layout_get_unknown_glyphs_count drracket tries to start, but the pango stuff seems to be really needed (see detailed stack trace below). So I assume that for drracket there's nothing to be done, is it? The one executable I got to start without errors (that is to say, I tried mred too, it started but with errors) was mred-text - would it be possible to work with this one (I didn't even know it existed before...) if one doesn't need any graphics?
