[vwnc] Looking for a few good Cairo/Windows testers again

I've attached a new library. This one is downloaded and built entirely  
by a turnkey script, and using all free pieces, such as MS Dev Studio  
Express. The hardest part has been figuring out how to get it to  
statically link against the runtime, rather than require the newer  
MSCVR90.dll.

1) Unzip the attached .dll and stick it next to your VM in bin/win
2) Load CairoGraphics 7.7 - 1 from the OR
3) Run this example in a workspace

image := ImageSurface format: CairoFormat argb32 extent: 50 @ 50.
image newCairoContextWhile:
                [:cr |
                cr
                        source: (LibCairo libraryVersion = '1.8.8'
                                                ifTrue: [ColorValue green]
                                                ifFalse: [ColorValue red]);
                        paint].
image writeToPng: 'cairotest.png'

One of 3 things will happen. It will
a) make a little green png file (HUZZAH!!)
b) make a little red png file (hmmm... we're find the wrong one, weird)
c) you get an error (SIGH)

Private replies are fine again. With any luck, this'll be the one we  
include in 7.7.

Thanks in Advance

I've tested this on Vista and W2K server.
