Hi robert,

Iv'e just managed to build 2.8.6 myself and found that I needed the 
latest version of cairo at http://cairographics.org it has to compiled 
B4 compiling pango. When pango configure finds the proper version of 
cairo it will then automatically build
libpangocairo. Even if your'e sure you're doing things right, when 
running configure take a moment to check which components pango is aware 
of or supporting.  And if you see cairo listed you might try checking 
with configure --help to find out which environment variables need to 
tweaked for pango configure to find cairo.

Hope this makes sense/helps,

John
