Title:
  Please provide a VFP-optimised build for cairo

Status in cairo package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in cairo source package in Jaunty:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Some ARM processors support vector floating point, which can cause
  significant improvements in the performance of floating point code.
  As this must be selected at compile-time, with the -mfpu=vfp CFLAG,
  this requires a special build.

  For performance reasons on such hardware, please enable such a build
  for cairo for jaunty.
