As Inkscape ships the libcairo.dll with the Inkscape binary it is
probably not worth trying to make the code work for different versions
of cairo. The win32_printing_surface has only existed in the 1.5.x
development snapshots. The first stable release (1.6.0) that will
include the win32_printing_surface will have the fix.
