I'm building/testing on MacOS X 10.7.
Having a standalone program which does not require UI yet triggers the
issue would make it much easier to test (and especially bisect).
If the issue only happens on iOS, I should be able to set up an
environment for that (IIRC in some thread you pointed out the options
needed to build pixman and cairo for ios).
