According to this URL:
http://lists.cairographics.org/archives/cairo/2007-July/010983.html
that error message is totally bogus. I.e., something went wrong in cairo
but it does not necessarily have anything at all to do with memory.
Unfortunately, that doesn't help much.
Most of the problems I've had with cairo have been font problems,
but I've never seen that particular message.
