Well, I haven't tested to do PS on PS or PDF on PDF in C, so am not sure 
if that is supposed to maintain the vector purity, but I guess there is 
something wrong with guile-cairo.

I seem to be using libcairo 1.14.2

I may be misunderstanding things, but I have the impression I am using 
the recording surfaces exactly as intended. Is there some easier/better 
way to do separate drawings and then combine them?

It works fine in C so I am not convinced that there is any reason for me 
not to use both recording and PS/EPS surfaces.

I think I have given up on guile-cairo.
