cairo: revert stable to 1.8.8.

1.8.10 has been known buggy for the last few months as a reason for
random crashing of
gtk (and not only) apps mostly with such message:

--
The program 'firefox' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter)'.
(Details: serial 955915 error_code 169 request_code 152 minor_code 7)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)
Segmentation fault
--

This affects at least seamonkey, firefox, sylpheed, gajim, xchat and any
other program
which is lanched for >20 hours.

Some kind of memleak is detected. To solve this problem, distributions
build
firefox, seamonkey, etc. with a holy, stable, and internal cairo library,
but that
doesn't solve the issue for small apps like sylpheed and xchat (since
cairo isn't
shipped with them).

p.s. devel version of cairo may be unaffected.
