Hello!  Thanks very much for your input, I really appreciate it.  I had
looked around for awhile for something like StringIO but somehow
completely missed it (I'm pretty sure I even asked on IRC, must have had
bad timing).  That's precisely what I had been looking for, and was
somewhat surprised when I didn't find it.  I should have known to just
ask the list instead of implementing my own.  :)

Anyway, for what it's worth, once I rip out my class and use StringIO
instead, the problem remains identical.  So it looks like my class
wasn't involved in the problem.

Okay, I guess I hadn't realized that PyCairo was such a separate thing,
since the Windows binaries I had downloaded for it had come from
pygtk.org.  I see that Cairo's got its own mailing list, so I'll just
take it over there.

Thanks again!  I do appreciate it; every little bit helps.
