I just posted my code to the svn repos.
There is no real difference between your code and mine so we should get the same
results.

First : the transparency in bitmap images is not render properly.

Gorm :

The application is almost Ok. Only the Application window can not be used (the
black box on the screen shot)

I get many error msgs :

examples/Calculator : fine!

examples/Ink : fine!

examples/GSTest: most tests look Ok. NSViewAnimation-test crashes

I probably had the same results one years ago when i write the code.

I use cairo-1.4.14. My system : XP sp2

I wont work on this code before long. Feel free to hack this stuff :-)
