The attached patch just fixes a few basic compile environment problems
for virt-manager under Windows (Cygwin). It doesn't actually run after
this, but it does at least compile without any errors.


(1) Added a package check for cairo.

(2) Add cairo CFLAGS and LIBS.

(3) Include <cairo.h>, which is needed because the code uses 'cairo_t'.
Goodness knows how this works under Linux.


(4) Make scrollkeeper optional - it's a PITA to compile it under Cygwin,
and it seems to be only needed for the help menus.

Note that to use this you will first need to follow my instructions for
compiling libvirt for Windows:


http://libvirt.org/windows.html

Then you will need to install urlgrabber and virtinst from source (both
compile fine).


Then you should install the Cygwin packages 'atk-devel', 'cairo' and
'glitz'.


After applying the patch attached below to the Mercurial version of
virt-manager, you can do:


autoreconf
./configure
make
