As cairo maintainer denying to include XKB support into main cairo package,
what if cairo-experimental package will be made to include those such
extensions like XKB? It can work in two ways:

1. Rename library to libcairo-experimental.so, and link awesome against it. But
here is high risk that both cairo libraries will be loaded.

2. Put libcairo.so to an alternative path like /usr/lib/cairo-expermental and
add it to ld.so search path so it loaded instead of main cairo.
(freetype-freeworld in RPM Fusion work this way.) This way it will override
system cairo.

I’m inclined to try second way. What do you think about it?
