Looks like someone's already registered Cairo with Coverity, although I
don't have an account so don't know what's there:

   https://scan.coverity.com/projects/1040

I've used coverity for other projects in the past.  I recall being
impressed that they provided good documentation along with the errors,
which made it obvious what needed changed.

Faults are faults, so anything coverity catches I think would be nice to
see fixes for.

If we were to set up our own static analysis infrastructure (which I
think would not be a bad idea...), then that's when we'd want to only be
looking at open source software options.
