Some observations:

1. The building xmlroff page says there are directions to patch GNOME print
   in the xmlroff distribution, but I didn't find any.  Maybe I'm dumb.

2. I sincerely hope that I can tell the patched GNOME print to build
   libraries with a separate name so as to not clobber the system GNOME print.

3. The PangoPDF home page have the wrong versions listed as current.

4. Just what is really different/new in PangoPDF from regular Pango?
   I'm using Pango myself right now for a project I'm working on,
   despite the lack of tutorial documentation it was a breeze to use,
   so I can't imagine it would be that hard to have the new functionality
   go in the main Pango :)
