I would add my experience, I'm currently using the directfb backend on a 
embedded board ( similar to a beagle board) . I 've compiled cairo v. 
1.8.10 with DirectFB v. 1.4.11,  same options, but without the pdf, ps 
and svg support.  I use it for create a GUI, instead of using the full 
GTK+ suite. On my configuration, a custom filesystem build from angstrom 
distro (I work on a ARM cpu), it works quite well. I don't know how to 
do this otherwise, so I use directfb backend :)
