My patch also has the advantage of not trying to link against Cairo if
it's present but disabled.  Without this, if you build libdrm, build
Cairo, clean libdrm and attempt to rebuild it again, the rebuild will
fail, because the test still attempts to link with -lcairo, which
fails as Cairo's .la file references libdrm.

Cheers,
Daniel
