SIGSEGV Cairo

This has been fixed upstream in commit 1b9703bada9cb6d58b63b7668ac3a0c51d3c3693. This will be in Banshee 1.5.4, but as we're unlikely to pull that in now, we should probably apply the patch to our 1.5.3 packages.

The new Banshee is appearing in 6 days, and I think we have clearance to upload
that, since Banshee is now keeping to a fixed release schedule, similar to
GNOME's (1.6.0). I don't see much point in patching Banshee before that (it'd
take that long to just get sponsored and synced from Debian anyway).
