drawing text and GdkPixbuf

[Darin Adler <darin eazel com>]

Here's the situation. I have a GdkPixbuf. I want to draw some text and
overlay it on top of the existing stuff in the pixbuf within a particular
rectangle. How can I do that? Can I create a GdkBitmap and draw into that
and then composite that into the GdkPixbuf somehow? Is this whole thing just
a misguided X novice problem?

Do I have to suck fonts out of the X server like the GnomeCanvasText canvas
item does?
