            Bug ID: 193692
           Summary: cairo 1.12 crashes xorg server on 8.x (NOT
                    WITH_NEW_XORG)
           Product: Ports Tree
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org

I have an 8-stable/x32 box that is now crashing after the new 1.12 cairo port
was installed.  Working around the issue, I have startx bring up enlightenment
instead of gnome-session.  But as soon as a gnome app is run, it instantly
kills Xorg (Xorg exited on signal 6 according to /var/log/messages, sometimes
"Segmentation fault: 11" in /var/log/Xorg.0.log).

I have not tried WITH_NEW_XORG yet on this somewhat older box (intel graphics),
but I thought !WITH_NEW_XORG was still supported (for now - 8.x is slated for
support through June 30, 2015).

I think this was a known issue, and I'm trying to find the reference where it
was fixed for all supported platforms.  If there's something I missed, let me
know.

Downgrading to graphics/cairo before 2014-09-12 works around this for now.
