Compiling Cairo for unicode ucs2

Hi,

I've been using a Hidden line removal python script which uses cairo,
but I'm getting the following error:

/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/cairo/_cairo.so: undefined symbol:
PyUnicodeUCS4_AsUTF8String

Apparently I need to compile cairo with Python compiled to ucs2.

I've downloaded pycairo-1.10.0.tar.bz2, extracted to
/opt/pycairo-1.10.0 and then run ./waf configure which gives the
following results:


Murray py2cairo-1.10.0 # ./waf configure
  ./options()
Setting top to                           : /opt/py2cairo-1.10.0
Setting out to                           : /opt/py2cairo-1.10.0/build_directory
  ./configure()

LIBDIR                                   : /usr/local/lib
'configure' finished successfully (0.984s)

Clearly the version that cairo is compiling against is python2.7 and
my PyUnicodeUCS4_AsUTF8String error is against Python2.6.

But when I run waf with python2.6 it appears to compile against python2.7:


Murray py2cairo-1.10.0 # python2.6 waf install
  ./options()
Waf: Entering directory `/opt/py2cairo-1.10.0/build_directory'
  ./build()
  src/build()

build_directory/src/_cairo.so)

Waf: Leaving directory `/opt/py2cairo-1.10.0/build_directory'

(from src/__init__.py)
+ byte compiling '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cairo/__init__.py'
'install' finished successfully (0.318s)

How do I compile Cairo against the correct Unicode version?

Kind Regards,
