> wxUSE_CAIRO indicates that wx's wxGraphicsContext API is using Cairo internally to draw. wxWebKit's drawing code is implemented in terms of wxGraphicsContext, not the WebKit Cairo rendering backend. (and wxGraphicsContext is not always using Cairo, either.) While wx is using Cairo internally, there are a couple spots where wx doesn't support what we need to do, and so in those cases we share some code with the native Cairo port, but it's a very small amount of what USE(CAIRO) actually defines and uses.

Thanks for the clarification! You might consider collapsing this logic into a flag that's more explanatory like WX_USES_CAIRO.
